Irrational fears

I think we've had a thread similar to this before, but I just realised I have some crazy fears.

1. When coming to a traffic light intersection and I have a green light, I'm really paranoid that an ambulance/fire truck/police car is going to come blaring down the street with it's lights and sirens on and smack straight into me from where they would have had to stop at red lights. (make sense?!)

2. I love singing in my car to whatevers on the radio. I'm paranoid that somehow, my cellphone in my bag has leant on something and dialled a number for some random person and they're listening to me sing.

I feel so silly admitting those! Add yours...

Pregnancy.



Oh wait, that isn't irrational.

But even when it is irrational (ie on injection) I still worry.

My biggest fear is spiders. (gets chills thinking about it)

But I also have a fear of hurting people's feelings. I try to make everybody happy even at my own expense.

I'm kinda the same. I would rather speak to the person, in person instead of over the phone! Wonder why that is...

Gosh funny, I far prefer to call someone - actually email is even better - than meet in person. It feels more "safe" to me

I almost feel sick, just thinking about (the possibility of) mice in the house. Absolutely hate it (we had them at one stage when I was a kid). One day my sis rang me at my bf's place (he's now my DH) to tell me that she found a dead one under a pile of stuff just outside our (hers and my) bedroom. He had been squashed flat. I screamed and dropped the phone!!

We had a cat trapped in our garage for 3 days, a couple of months back. Now everytime I see the garage door not properly closed, I always do a quick scan of the place to check there are no more eyes peering out. Ugh. Totally freaked me out when I walked in there that once and found a cat just sitting there, looking at me.

Me too I spend so long preparing for the phone call and deciding what and how to say it all, that when I finally call, I get it all mixed up and am a blubbering mess. Would much rather do everything in person.

My main irrational fear is about car accidents. We travel a lot and have to text before I leave and after I get there just in case I've gone off the road and no body knows. DP rides a motorbike daily and that REALLY worries me too.

Oh and thanks for this - I had never thought about it before    Will now!!

My fears are that if I'm walking under a bridge it's going to collapse on me.

My other is when me and James a out walking that when I'm crossing the road someone going to be speeding or not see us and hit the pram that one freaks me out the most.

I'm the same, we live by the Onehunga firestation and I shudder when I hear them coming and I'm in the car or even waiting to cross the road to go home.

My other fear is something happening to me on my way to picking Nyah up from preschool, and hubbie not knowing what bus I caught or which way I went to get her...

I have that intersection fear too, but these days not just emergency vehicles!

My irrational fear is that when I am walking round a shop people think I am stealing things and the store detectives are following me waiting to pounce! (And i don't have anything for them to find of course!)

And when i see a cop, in the car or in person walking around, I always think they are coming for me for wahtever reason, even though I know that I haven't done anythign wrong!
