Friday Fun Thread ~ Weird Fears



Recommended Posts

Am I the only psycho? Is anyone else afraid of the following:

Fiding dead bugs inbetween toilet paper sheets when going potty.

Lifting the lid to find a decapitated head staring at you.

Wierd fears huh?

The fear of pain is pretty normal, but I think I'm a bit crazy with it. Being IN pain doesn't bother me so much as the idea of pain. Like, when I go to get a shot, I just get so worried that it's going to hurt, and I freak myself out, and then it does hurt a little, but it's like no big deal. I dunno.

Nothing so wierd as finding a head in my toilet tho. :)

Wondering if someone is hiding in the closet or under the bed. Ax murderers.

Where are the rest of the weirdos today? I know I'm not alone.

This isn't creepy wierd, but, if the toilet paper runs out while I'm going potty, I'm always afraid the toilet paper holder will fall into the toilet while I'm changing it. Never mind that my whole dadgum lap covers the seat and there's NO WAY it's getting past...every time it happens though, I worry the little springy thing will fall in. ???

I have that closet door thing going on, 42 y/o and still cant sleep with the closet door open. I must have been traumatized as a kid (come to think of it, as a kid we didnt have doors on the closets, maybe it is just the novelty of it??) I have a great big fear of cows, and dont even get me started on spiders.

Now, as for fears.......... The fear of some animal bitting my foot while lieing in bed. Or if I am near a car at night, something coming out and bitting my foot. I think I have this fear, cause I'm fat and have a heck of a time reaching my feet, and if there was some furry big tooth animal latched on to my tootsie's, I would be not be able to reach him and yank him off. Just the thought of it makes my toes curl up, and I pull my feet under the chair.

Delarla...you worry me sometimes

- what's with the head in the toilet? (lol)

My big fear (maybe not too wierd) is being blinded while driving down the road. Considering that it snows here in KY this has almost happened to me on several occassions after making the mistake of trying to clean my windshield and having the Water freeze on the glass.

Driving blind behind a semi truck on I65 is no fun...

2. Mike dying and me raising 3 kids alone.

3. Gaining my weight back.

4. Finding a rat(s) in my house.

So I'm the only one that lifts the lid to check for a head? Odd. But to be afraid of cows, odder. I adore cows. I can do without decapitated heads though. Better to voice your fear so it never really happens. Being afraid of animals biting your feet is a valid fear in my book considering my cat used to attack our feet in dead sleep. Freaky, indeed.

I've always been afraid of someone being under my car or under my bed. When I go to sleep at night, I can't hang my foot over the edge!! When I get in the car, I can't linger with my feet dangling. I'm afraid the person under my car has a knife & is going to take some good stabs at my feet.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
