If you had to pick a phobia to live with
(or trade the one you have for another)

Which of these would chose?

=)

**Of course if you have a better phobia to offer??*

Probably the library.
Acrophobia because I am short and can live without being 1000 feet off the ground :D

I would much rather be afraid of Orlando Bloom and eggplants than small spaces or germs, but ....eh :)

I chose three, but I'm actually afraid of polls too. I'm a survivor.

Nothing on that list, but I am afraid of ladders and have a completely irrational fear of blue Chevy Astro vans. I can't explain the latter (not ladder, latter). I...have no idea. My husband thinks it's hilarious that I'll actually change lanes if I end up next to one.

What? Oh, don't act like it's a surprise. None of you thought I was sane to begin with.

Oh, I'm right there with you on the needles/injections. Only hypodermic needles, though. Acupuncture? Love it. Tattoos? Have several. Shots? *whimper*

I don't think I have a phobia, though I really don't like people. I'm not scared of them.

Anyway...I chose eggplant. I don't know how to cook it, it's an odd color, and I can't remember the last time I really had it...if ever. I could live without it.

I have OCD and panic/anxiety issues. I'm afraid of most of those things already.

Now I'm questioning my love of eggplant parmesan.

And elves.

Is there a word for being afraid that when you look in a mirror you'll see a scary dead person standing right behind you? I have that.
