Has anyone here got any phobias or have manged to overcome their fears? I used to have a phobia of hights but I overcome it by taking up rock climbing and I have even once done some rock climbing without any ropes! I also don't like deep water. I managed to force myself to swim in a 100m deep disused quarry but I still don't like it.

I was afraid of heights, but I took a job as a pipefitter and I had to work high up on scissor lifts a lot so I overcame it.

My fear of deep water hasn't gone away yet. I work on docks almost daily now, but I seldom have to get in.

When I was little I was the ONE kid who was NEVER afraid of the dark. I couldn't stand to have ANY sort of light in the room when I was sleeping. One night my ex husband broke into my house and almost killed me. Since then I have developed a terrible, borderline hysterical fear of the dark. I sleep with my TV on, I have to have SOME kind of light on at ALL times at night.

I also am REALLY scared of heights but I LOVE rollercoasters! Go figure!

I FEAR NOTHING!! Ok I'm lying. I don't have any normal fears persay. The one thing that scares me most is getting eaten by a shark. Haha! I know, I'm weird.

I have a fear of heights, to the point where pictures of rooftops really freak me out. Open water is another thing...cant drive over bridges that go over rivers, and the one time that I DID manage to get close enough to the water at the beach, i couldnt breathe.

Snakes, spiders, sharks are no problem for me, after all I live in Oz and pretty much everything bites, stings or kills here...But, I have a really really weird phobia...a fear of elephants. Stop laughing!

I fear that too...never experiencing real love or happiness. It seems like every man I start to date ends up being an asshole.
