Fears and Phobias Advanced Assignment Due 2/19/11

All of us have things that we are fearful about. Many people say they are scared to die, and even some people are afraid of speaking in front of other people.  Think about your fears. What are you afraid of?
Some may be serious, and some may be silly, but it always helps to think about our fears.

So, after you think about it, write about them. I would like you to tell me what you are afraid of and why you think you are afraid of these things.

After you write, lookup some of these phobias and find out what they are. Can you believe that some people are afraid of these things?

Ablutophobia
Caligynephobia
Dromophobia
Hylophobia
Mycophobia
Rhytiphobia
Xenophobia

  1. My little phobia is afraid of heights. Its all started when I was little and I love to walk on my balustrade in my condo building on 7 th floor. I was maybe couple years old and I have no fears at this time:0) that was no problem for me I could walk back and forth on it and looked down for people walking on the street One day friend of my parents come over and he saw me walking on the balcony he get scared so badly that he jump on the balcony and catch me while I was walking….But he almost kill me this way I lost my balance and almost run over it. He catches me at the last minute!!! From now on I can’t do this anymore..this is a shame a little bit because I really want to try crazzzyyy things like a bungee or helicopters!! But I never gave up to it either I’am trying to fights my fears as much as I can and do stuff like a roller coasters for example!! I think if you really want something you can do it!!
