I don't know if it's unusual or not but I get spooked in open water. The ocean definitely but even lakes. Lakes are scarier I think because of tree limbs sticking out of the water always freaks me out.

I'm afraid of bags of bird seed. When I was a kid, I put my hand into one to fill the bird feeder, and instead touched a dead mouse that had gotten inside. We still always feed the birds, but the fear of the closed bags that could have a dead mouse inside hasn't left me.

Escalators! And those moving walkways that go diagonally. I am fine with the ones that are horizontal though and I am fine with ramps and elevators of any kind. But escalators and moving walkways that are at the same angle as escalators I dislike. And it is always at the same height each time. It's like cool, cool, cool, cool, cool WTF!

Houses that have enclosed second-floor porches above an open porch below. It just creeps me out. Open second floor porches or balconies are fine. It's the enclosure that freaks me out. I fear being inside the second-floor porch or anywhere underneath it. I don't have any experience or history of a porch collapsing, so I don't know why the heck this is.

Stairs, but only the ones without hand rails, I think it's because I like to have something to grab if I trip? I won't go up or down stairs or ladders if there's no hand rail, but I almost never put my hand on rails if they're present as I'm also a mysophobic!

Slugs! I tried to drown one in a cup of water when I was a kid and thought that I was successful... so then I got distracted by something else... and it crawled out of the cup and back out onto my hand; I have been irrationally horrified by slugs ever since. Seriously - if I see one crawling up some smooth dewy surface a foggy morning - I will literally run away screaming "SLUG!"... then will inevitably end up inside grabbing a salt shaker, only to come back out, salt the hideous thing, and stand -satisfied - as I watch it shrivel up and die. Once it dies, I then begin looking around in a panic... as I remember that there could be more that have crawled out nearby...

I posted somewhere on IG, but here goes. My deepest fear, and perhaps unusual to other people, but makes sense to me, is when the day comes that I won’t be able to remember all of the good times I’ve had. All of my memories will at some point deteriorate to the point they won’t make sense, and I am a rather nostalgic person. I am young, just graduated high school, but I love reminiscing of what I have already done with family and friends, my accomplishments. I love the little things, and the big things. And so where most people are worried about not being able to take care of themselves, I think that as long as someone is willing to help me, they care for me. But, if I can’t remember my life at that point, I don’t want to live.
