'What things scare you?'

When I was young, I always have this scary feeling that my family will be hurt. I do not want them to feel any pain. Through the years of existence, it happened the scariest thing in my life. It was the days when my late father got sick and died on his death bed in 2014. I struggled to accept it at first. Eventually, I need to let go and accept his fate. Is there anything that scares you? How do you cope up with your fear? Image Credit: guideposts.org

I was afraid of my own blood, unless my eyes were closed.

@Shavkat I don't faint, just dont wanna see my own blood. @crossbones27 I thought that when my cheek was pricked by a nail my blood would not stop flowing and at that moment I felt like my life was not long.

@May2k8 It is scary How do I know that blood leaking out my body is going to stop. It was a bit unfair of adults and still mad. Life is unfair lesson learned. lol

It sounds like you have a 'hemophobia.' Are you going to faint if you see it in flesh?

Worrying about things happening to our family always cause pain and anguish. Nobody wants people they love and care about to be in pain or die. I try not to think about things like that. Most of the time there isn't anything I can do to change things, make them better.

I cannot bear to ride on a roller coaster because of this. How much more if being on the highest point of a building.

@Shavkat There's no way anyone is getting me on a roller coaster again. Those definitely scare the heck out of me.

I got scared when we had experienced a killer earthquake in 1990. It was a bad situation that named my city a ghost city before.

That's scary if we go across the road and got an accident. It is a morbid way to say it.

I guess I have a lot of fears. Dying in a fire would be one of them.

That's not a good way to die. I have this fear because it will be so painful to die like this.

I also don't want to be drowned. I experienced this before and felt scared because I might not see my family again. Luckily, someone pulled me to the side of the river. It is not a good feeling when thinking that we might not see our loved ones in the future.

I had experienced a vehicle crashed incident a few years back. It was an accident but it was not me who was driving. But then, I got traumatized and never dared to drive a car.
