They don't HAVE to make sense your just uneasy with certain things. Mine are:

Chainsaws, I can be around them and work right alongside them with no problem whatsoever BUT I am extremely nervous when I operate one.

Spiders, I blame my upbringing! when the person that you trust most is holding you and runs away screaming bloody murder when she/he sees a spider it does tend to impress upon you. :tired

My greatest fear is snakes. I cannot even look at a picture of one. And I live in the country, so you can imagine what lurks outside of my house. My son-in-law was bitten by a copper head, not once, but twice, the same snake!!!

Also, mice. My God, I scream so loud, it bends metal. It makes DH so mad, but I tell him that he is the man of the house and it is his duty to protect me. Living in the country, when the weather starts turning cold, I can expect at least one of these little visitors. Plus, I have 4 cats!!! They are use less.

Also, I am scared of Water. I cannot swim and have no interest in learning.

Also, tornado terrify me. We live in Texas and we get our share. Last spring, one came to within a mile of our house, I have never been so scared in my life. I was in the closet with my precious dog. DH was standing at the open front door, keeping a lookout!!! (or maybe he was trying to keep the mice outside!!!)

I am semi paranoid of getting in a car accident - I blame this on a few accidents that I was involved in and I saw that accident coming. If I see a car behind me when I am stopped my heart starts to race because I was hit from behind while stopped at a red light and I saw that the car was not going to stop but I couldnt move because there was a car in front of me. I also get scared when I see a car coming out of a side street and not looking like it is going to stop.

I also have the usual fears of bugs - all kinds - disappointing my family, drowning - i cant even watch a movie when people are underwater - and all that good stuff.

How did it work on the day of the LPB operation with all these phobias? Was anybody nervous,having a panic attack?
