I am also afraid of the dark. I always have been. Unless hubby is in bed with me, I sleep with a nightlight on and the hall light on and the TV on. When I was little, I used to think that aliens were going to come abduct me. I also NEVER look into a mirror at night or in the dark. After seeing Candyman, I'm scarred for life.

Ever since I was little I've been afraid of BIRDS. I can remember and so can my Mom, of me waking up screaming because I dreamt of chickens in and on my crib. I can remember it like it was yesterday and can tell you where all 5 chickens were.

I can't go any place like tourist places that have birds running around, any kind of BIRD, ducks, geese...even the fake ones. It's a horrible fear.

I can't even mow our yard anymore because of the tree/barn swallows. I know logically they are eating bugs, but they swoop and dive at me and I just can't stand it. Even if I see a dead one I'll hop off the mower and let it keep going.

I've never wanted my son to be afraid so I do have hummingbird and finch feeders hanging outside. Long as they are out and I'm in it's not too bad. I just hate their eye, feet and beak and wings...well I guess pretty much the whole bird.

You know, up until a few years ago, I had never met anyone afraid of birds, but now I know at least 5. It's horrible to be that afraid and I mean I actually panic and totally lose it.

That's funny. My mother-in-law is afraid of birds and she is the only one I've ever met with that phobia.

I sleep with every light off. The way I feel is I don't want an intruder to be able to see where he's going and I know where everything is in my house, including my S&W 38.

I am afraid of tight places. Like the back seats of cars. I can't stand to ride in the back seat of a car. MRI's I can't do. That's my fobia.

MICE!!! They freak me out!!! And rats, oh man don't even wanna think of them, something about them think it's the tails, dunno ewwwww
I'm scared of the dark, if i need the bathroom during the night i wake my husband up, he has to go with me.
Since we live in this house, i'm better with going to the bathroom, there's always the outside light shining in the hallway, so i focus on that.
Scary movies i can't watch them, i don't sleep if i do.
