Do you have any phobias?
Finding myself sunburned and covered in corn in a factory farm full of chickens.
Not really.

I guess I'm just so scared of it that I can't even put it on the poll. xD
Or something else...

I don't think I have an extreme case, but my fear / phobia is being institutionalized. - hospital, nuts house, prison, nursing home etc... Closest name I can find is Dementophobia - which is the fear of being insane, but I don't care if I'm insane he'he I just have a (hopefully :) irrational fear of being 'put away'. I don't think my fear has too much effect on my everyday life except I don't like to go to the dr. when I'm sick, because I worry about being hospitalized... I won't eat food prepared in any way reminiscent of a institution cafeteria. I've been hospitalized when I've had no other choice for dealing with illnesses... (physical not mental) and I couldn't stomach eating anything prepared within the hospital. I'd flush, give away or dispose of what they served me and ate from vending machines or say I was going for a walk and sneak away to the coffee stand or nearby deli... Once I was waiting for a train, and overheard two women dressed in hospital scrubs talking about how the elderly patients were being fed dog food. They weren't joking, they were speaking in detail... :( Poor patients. This wasn't where my fear originated but it didn't help. My fear grew to a fear of dog and cat food, opening the can, the smell... I could barely feed my cat. My fear of processed meat and food continued and at this point I am more or less a vegetarian, except I eat fish occasionally when I can avoid overthinking it.
I've had two elderly grandmothers attempt to escape the old folks home,... They were both caught :( but I was routing for them.
I can trace back the reasons for my phobia to my childhood, but knowing how it started doesn't make it go away.

mine could be claustrophobia, but isn't.
my fear is being completely stuck, totally unable to move, the only thing that my body can do is can breathe.
is there a phobia that represents it?

Autophobia and Aquaphobia ( <--- this one was thanks to the father of my brothers , someday i was in the pool and he was "joking" with me so he made me sniff a lil of pool chlorine and that made me unable to breath, i was about to die thanks to that but well )

At this time, my greatest fear is unemployment. Like paralyzing fear. I'm in my 30s, reasonably accomplished in my field for someone with only an MA, too deep in debt to seek more education or re-training, and I felt really lucky to get an interview at Hobby Lobby. And the leading presidential candidates are preaching doctrine which will end me up unemployed and on the dole for the rest of my life. This is not a good time to be a journeyman at any profession.

I hope everything works out well for you. There are also a lot of other ways to make money both legal and illegal

Heights walk along with my fear of dying. My legs start shaking, my heart races... I had to go up on my roof once and that was a nightmare.

fear of failure.. exams, not finding job , not able to maintain relationships..fear of failing at any goal you set for yourself
i don't mind dying. There's nothing to fear of death itself. as it is you will probably die by illness at old age. by that time Death will be a blessing.

Mine is dying. You can't just go back in time and reverse that.
