I might have Acrophobia/Altophobia-fear of heights. I love flying on planes and I always request a window seat but I'm not always comfortable looking out that window:) Especially in bad weather or turbulence zone!... That's one of the reasons I've never been on a rollercoaster and would not want to ride one.
How about you? What phobia do you have and has it ever prevented you from doing an otherwise pleasurable or interesting activity?
P.S. i believe some people here have Allodoxaphobia-fear of opinions lol

I have phobias aplenty. My hubby thinks I am nuts most of the time. I hate heights, if it is high enough for me to injure or kill myself I am not going. I hate dentists and doctors and avoid them at all costs. That is nothing compared to my fear of hypodermic needles. I can't even watch them on TV give a shot to someone. I am also claustrophobic! You would think I'm a mess but other than these phobias I get along quite well!

Yeah,some people are afraid of doctors,guess they must've had bad experience. I had a friend who used to faint every time she saw blood,it must be very bad luck that she was born a female;)

I can't stand worms. I would just die...I remember the long walk from the bus stop to my house in a raining day. There were worms everywhere. OMG!! At some point, there were like 10 on the ground and i was surrounded. I couldn't walk anymore in fear to touch them or just walk over them. This feeling gives me the creeps.So I called hom and my mom had to pick me up on the streets _

Whoa, I know a lot of people who are afraid of insects but I've never heard of people scared of being sick. I do not like spiders myself, but not all of them. The ones that I dislike are actually harmless but their long wobbly legs and fat bodies are just ewww lol
By the way,when i was a kid I was fascinated with snails and caterpillars!
