I fear medium to large sized spiders, and flying bugs in general (craneflies really skitch me out).
I fear open doors that lead into dark spaces at night. This stems from childhood, and it has never really gone away. All closet doors must be closed before I go to sleep. If I'm alone at night in a house, all of the doors leading into unoccupied/dark rooms must be shut at all times, or my mind goes wild about who/what could be lurking in there.
I also fear mirrors in the bathroom at night. And not being able to see behind the shower curtain. Yes, my parents did not censor any horror films from me as a very young child, can you tell? They rented all kinds of crap and brought it home for me to see. Not good for a 5 year old kid.
I fear the Down's syndrome test when I am pregnant. I fear childbirth. I fear that our children will be disabled, and that we won't be able to handle it. I fear that I will resent my children and wish that I had never become a parent. I fear that I will regret NOT having kids, if we don't give it a try. Obviously, I'm nowhere near being able to decide if we should have kids.
That's all for now.
