Do you have an unusual phobia?

I'm curious about people's phobias. I think they're interesting because I used to have an unusual fear that turned into a phobia of my toes cramping. It got so out of control that I actually had to be treated for a form of OCD. (I became obsessive and then my behavior turned compulsive) I've overcome the worst but I still don't like the thought of swimming (toes are forced to point) or watching ballet dancers dance on their toes.

I myelf am terrified of heights. I don't understand it when I was younger heights didn't bother me one bit. I have found the older I get the worse my fear gets.

I hate riding with people in a car. I don't mind driving just not riding with someone. I feel like I can't control whats going to happen. I get nervous and very paranoid about running off the road or hitting someone.

I'm like that when certain people are driving, too. But others I can trust completely.
