Post your fears and/or things you try to avoid.
I’ll start:
My step mother (soon to be ex step mother)
Conflicts with my Father

I’m terrified of the future. I’m happy with the status quo right now, and change terrifies me. Really badly.

@apathy, it has been a while since I have seen you around. It’s nice to see you back.
You said your soon to be ex stepmother. Does that mean she won’t be moving back in and you don’t need to find your own place to live?
My fears are pelicans and my Mum’s old war of the worlds record.
My sister used to put that record on and trap me in the living room while it played when I was little. Nice.

Sorry about that, @Apathy.
I avoid one of my sisters. After a lifetime of her damaging, selfish behavior I’m saying no more. It’s sad, but I’ve made the right choice.

Thank you. It’s good to be back.
In all honesty she is in the middle of a manic episode and has been thinking of moving out of state to Florida at the end of the year. And before the idea of moving to Florida or even back in here, she gave my Dad divorce papers. He hasn’t touched them yet but I think her giving them to him was part of her manic episode and she peaked about the time she thought about moving to Florida.

I have a whole lot of fears - too many to mention.
Being in a hospital with some fatal illness and having some very vengeful person putting large amounts of Haldol into my IV drip.
I’m afraid to die young although I’m 49. I want to live till I’m 70
Each set back makes me to fear a relapse
I’m afraid I’ll go blind because of the keratoconis condition in my eyes
I’m afraid that my diabetes take a turn for the worst and I might loose a limb
I’m afraid that my heart dysrythms cause my heart to fail.
I’m afraid of conflict.
But through it all I’m happy to be alive.

I was afraid of the dentist, but my teeth needed so much work and I was in so much pain that I ended up going and getting some wisdom teeth out. I’ve made follow up appointments for fillings and I’m less afraid of the dentist now.

driving, abandonment, loneliness, hatred, demons, that someone is going to kill me
I don’t much to fear these days aside from the distant and vague possibility of losing my job. Or my brother ODing on something. Most everything in my life is stable otherwise.
I guess character wise I fear degrading into a neurotic frustrated bitch of a man due to this illness.
Also my rent check might not line up with my money. 28$ overdraft fee… It’ll set’ll itself within 48 hours… But it’s still not good to lose that 28$… Gotta get a month ahead. Or rents worth in their so it clears.
the fear of going broke…
Fears:
Strong wind
Crowds or crowded places
Starting a fire accidentally
Phone calls and when the doorbell rings
Being secretly watched
Cameras
When law enforcement gets behind my car
And some other stuff I can’t think of…
