Snakes.  I hate them.  Wish they were all dead.  They're so gross...and can kill you.

Birds.  Not the big beautiful ones. Herons, pelicans, parrots - those are all pretty cool.  It's the little finches and sparrows that creep me out.  I had one land on my head when I was a kid and I freaked - I'm still weirded out by them.

I am scared of a few things, but I wouldn't say I have a phobia. I did get really scared when I was still living at home and saw a bird in the house. That happened on two occasions and both times no one was home but me. The first time, I tried to open the back door hoping it would fly out but the dumb bird kept flying into the dining room window. The second time, I tried to get it with a broom. Still no luck, so I just waited upstairs until someone came home. When they scooped the bird up with a sheet and took it outside, it didn't fly away. That's when I realized that I had injured it.
So you see, I don't mind seeing birds when I'm outside. Seeing them inside the house is when I have a problem.

No wonder! Who'd want to get stung?! Ouch!

I was diagnosed with agoraphobia a few years ago so I spend a lot of time at home.  I also live alone.  Living with other people is no longer an option for me because of the anxiety I would have to deal with.

I am grateful that I can customize a lifestyle that works out well for me.    :heart:
Have a great day!

Spiders and heights.  I will risk the wrath of environmentalists to rid my surroundings of spiders-- Ortho Home Defense Max, bring it on!  Since I started spraying with that product, my house is spider-free.  Now if I could just find a spray for heights...
