Hello friends! Welcome back to another edition of Freaky Friday Files. For this edition, I thought we could do something a bit different and look at a list of things I'm afraid of because I have some really irrational fears HAHA. Hope you enjoy.
PIN IT
Things I'm Afraid Of
Being in my 30s. I don't know why. Nothing has changed. I just feel like I should be more successful than I am now lol.
Crabs. When I was little, I had this nightmare that I really needed to get up and use the bathroom in the middle of the night, but I woke up to hundreds of crabs on my bedroom floor, and I've been scared of them ever since. I'm getting a bit better, but sometimes when I see them irl, I back away a bit.
Ants. Yes, this is embarrassing.
Centipedes. Also, worms.
Having to make phone calls. I think this is a millennial thing because we grew up with landlines and never knew who was calling.
The Bloody Mary urban legend. That could be a cool Freaky Friday Files.
Heights (but I don't think this one is irrational, as a lot of people have this fear).
Looking at a needle when it goes in, bleugh, I want to throw up. Yucky. I can deal with the needles going in, I just can't look at it, and I get SO many blood tests.
I am afraid that I will never recover from unresolved trauma or my health issues (especially if I do have a blood disorder; that doesn't go away).
I'm afraid that I'm not funny enough. Humour is subjective, but I like making people laugh.
I'm afraid that a lot of my friends hate me.
I'm afraid that if I make plans, I won't have enough energy for my partner's family, so I don't reach out to people as often as I would like to, so I don't disappoint them.
The horror movie The Ring. Also, weirdly, The Cabin In The Woods scared me too. I like horror movies, but I think they have to be on my terms. Psychological thrillers are more my thing tbh.
Zombies. I hate zombies.
Being home alone.
When Benji barks at nothing in the middle of the night.
Walking alone at night.
Not being able to walk with headphones in.
Caves. James Cameron.
People. But only sometimes.
Being accused of a crime you didn't commit.
Small spaces.
Anything to do with cognitive decline.
Being touched without consent (i.e., I hate when people hug me all the time lol).
My own mental health.
So there you have it, a list of things I am afraid of. What's yours? Let me know in the comments.
Thank you for reading.
