Alright, so imagine this (or don't, you probably shouldn't). You get hurt in some small, insignificant way, no big deal, you're bleeding but it's not bad. However, as you look at the wound, something starts to emerge. It's a worm, and as you watch more pour out of your body, and they start to exit from other points as well, your body is now nothing more than a hive, full of worms exiting and entering your flesh.

I'm scared of many things. Spiders, insects, and heights, but honestly I have something more serious. First of all, I'm worried to tell my Christian family that I'm a furry and Lgbtq+ supporter. Most churches would probably exclude me from most activities and also I can't be sure if they'll be fine with me after.

And on top of that, I have daily intense migraines. Nowadays they're strong enough to make my vision blur for a sec or make me lose balance. I fear that one day, I'll go faint or something like that.

Dear fellow BP user, your journey towards self-acceptance is truly one of courage and growth. Nurturing self-love and acceptance is akin to tending to a rare and delicate flower – it requires time, patience, and careful attention. Every petal and every imperfection come together to create a masterpiece, not a work in progress. While it's natural to have moments of self-doubt, always remember that your value isn't tied to others' opinions. Those who spread negativity often carry their own struggles or they're just a complete a-hole at heart. So, as you embrace your beautiful self, let hurtful words be like raindrops landing on a resilient umbrella. Should someone attempt to dim your light, it's they who miss the opportunity to experience something truly exceptional.

This is very specific to me, but I'm terrified that my mom will unalive herself (she has tried before) and then I'll end up living with my super strict aunt and going to a catholic highschool because my dad is not responsible enough to be a parent (my mom has literally discussed this with me before), but I also know for a fact that my dad can't really take care of himself on his own, and he would probably stop taking his medication and either end up unaliving himself (I don't think he's ever tried but I think he's thought about it and he does SH occasionally) or he would end up in a psych ward somewhere. So yeah. Isn't that fun?
Oh, and I'm also terrified of insects getting stuck in my hair because once many years ago I woke up in the middle of the night with a large roach tangled in my hair.
Also this is my new account because my school is stupid

Deep, deep water, or more specifically what’s in said water

Absolutely! Thalassophobia is the term for the fear of deep water, and I personally experience Submechanophobia. Seeing large objects ( e.g ships ) beneath the dark depths of the water really unsettles me too. So, I can definitely relate to your fear. Just the thought of not knowing what's below you as you hypothetically swim in the ocean with a snorkel on, is unsettling indeed.

I have a odd fear of submerged mechanical objects underwater, known as Submechanophobia.
Also the fear of nuclear war sparking across the globe.

A nuclear war sounds more terrifying than anything else in the world but don't let those thoughts consume you. Be in the moment and love what you've got and surely you'll be feeling much better :)

I’m scared that my house will catch fire even though the odds are low. I’m also afraid that somebody somewhere decides to start using nukes during war

I can understand the fear of heights. It's something that really gets your heart pumping and your hands sweating. Remember that you are not alone in this and that there is a whole community of others that understands the struggle.

My biggest fear is a situation: I get married, but before my wife and I consumate our first times ever she is raped. That would destroy me.

That's so true and I might be more of a victim even though I usually call myself nonbinary. It's not that common (depending on where you live) but I understand what you mean

Something dark. Shadowy. So I was on holiday a couple of days ago so my room is really messy and there are a lot of shadows at night because of the stuff. And of course, as I am a very dumb Dragon I watched a YouTube short where someone was talking about a horror game. It’s called Pumpkin kin Panic and… Just Google it. Or search on some sort of search engine. That night I couldn’t fall asleep because I kept on imagining skinwalkers (I think they’re called) standing in the corner of my room.
Or a real-life Enderman.

I wouldn’t say it’s my biggest fear, but it’s probably my weirdest. I have a fear of wrists and veins, my own wrists specifically. It started out as a fear of getting my wrists cut but now I’m afraid to even look at them. Idk it’s weird. I’m not really sure what my biggest fear is, though it might be being kidnapped and/or being SAed.

Oh another big fear I thought of whilst sitting on the loo!
That some strange, superior force or aliens see the Earth and decide that this planet is not going to exist and well, make it not exist.
Or that some person decides that they want to die and take the world with them.
