I want kids and love them, but my own mom as much as I love her, was and is a screwball. A good person at heart but she often channels the whole “NO WIRE HANGERS!” deal. –chuckles- And we have a lot of genetic issues in my family like mental illness, cancer (moms side) and alcoholism (dad’s side) so I worry about that. I myself suffer from anxiety and was on meds a long time ago though now I’ve been off for several years.
I worry about post-partum depression ad my docs do too because of the increase in hormones and my mental history and all of that. I want to be a good parent and yes we all screw up from time to time, but I hesitate to have kids KNOWING full well I have a higher likelihood of screwing up…would rather not have them at all and Dh feels the same way because he wants to be a good dad if we have kids. So that’s my biggest fear…I never want to make my kids feel the way I did growing up and I know that that alone should make it less likely to happen, but I also know myself…. So we’ll see how it goes.
2. MICE!!!! OMG SOOOOOOOOO afraid of them because they’re squishy and mushy and slide under things OMG!!!!! LMAO I remember once at my old job I opened the door and a mouse ran in like the sucker was WAITING for me to open the door. I ran out and then had to explain to a bunch of laughing maintenance guys why I “let the mouse into the house” so they could go catch it.
3. Ghosts/Demons…
Anything NOT alive thank you very much that should STAY that way!!! I’ll admit it…super fraidy cat. I am a writer so I can scare THE HELL out of myself lmao. I do it all the time-work myself up so bad I can FEEL the creepies. I don’t like any movies with scary things, especially monsters that get you in your dreams like Freddy or through mirrors…repetitive songs and crap like that lmao in those movies KILLS me because it gets stuck in your head and you’re like OMG he’s going to get me now!!!!I
I also DESPISE movies with demons of creepy kids like “The Possession” or “Children of the Corn” and The “Devil’s Advocate”-that last one scared me for WEEKS because of the whole. Seeing how easy it is to be led astray and sin, themes. I was even being nice to the crabby women in Admissions lmao. Like “bless you!” instead of the other choice word that was more appropriate for her crabby @ss.

Re: Whats Scares the #$%& out of you?
I'm not really scared of much...
1. Dying or becoming very ill
2. Finding out I am pregnant (I don't think I really want to have children)/finding out there is something wrong with my baby
3. I have a ridiculously irrational fear of an airline losing my luggage -- I completly freak out if it isn't one of the first few off the belt. On our HM, DH's bag was one of the last when we flew into Cairo on a flight of 300 ppl and I thought I was going to have a heart attack.

Re: Whats Scares the #$%& out of you?
1) i absolutely HATE being in the dark by myself!! (i know i know i'm a five year old)...i had to sleep by myself one night which was fine untill i had to pee lol. i literally landed both feet on the floor from the bed & tiptoed but bolted to the bathroom and back! Dh likes to tease me - we have a stairwell that leads up to our front door and he'll race up ahead of be & turn the lights off.lol.the jerk thinks it's hysterical!
2) spiders & any kind of other bug with creepy legs(centipedes..cockroaches UGH!!!)...they just give me the heeby jeebies...uuuuggggh. worms - could care less, mice no big deal...but UGH legs! they just creep me out!!!
3) getting brutally attacked &/or raped...home invasion while we're home.. i can't even watch tv or movies late at night that entail it otherwise i'm up all night wondering if someones climbing through our window lol.
hate clowns..hate the novacaine needle at the dentist lol...car accidents...uuugghh another is of course something bad happening or a serious illness happening to DH or a family member or a close friend...but i have tremendous faith & try not to think about it on any sort of regular basis. that kind of stuff can drive u to paranoia!
ok so that's more than three lol.WHATEVER!

Re: Whats Scares the #$%& out of you?
1. Scary Movies- Some of them are a bit silly but many of them are really scary. Michael wants to see certain ones like the new Saw movie but I told him I am sorry but I can not watch them. That clown is too freaky.
2. Clowns-As a child I was totally freaked out by them. Now if it's a circus or a dance it's not really scary but if it has to do with a scary movie forget it.
3. Dentists- Well not as much now because I have a really good dentist but when I was younger I was afraid of my pedatric dentist and crying so hard when he got me into his chair he slapped me across my face. Funny thing is he is still in business.
4. Singing-Well is a fear that I so want to get over. I do sing and I do enjoy it. As a dance teacher and teaching the little dancers I automatically do it. The fear is singing in front teacher/rolemodel figures. When I was in elementary school my elementary school music teacher had us perform singing tests where you had to stand up in front of her 'casio' keyboard and sing, of course. I sure that there were two other students with me but I was so nervous that I tears in my eyes and could nt do it. A year or two later we had to do this again so I got the guts to do it but not focus on my music teacher but she did focus on me by staring at me. So, my dream at this point would be to actually show her that I can sing without being so nervous. By the way she is a excellent music teacher.
5. Death-it just makes me nervous

Re: Whats Scares the #$%& out of you?
1) I am so afraid of someone close to me getting sick or dying tragically. If I pass a car accident my heart stops & I have to slow down to be sure I don't recognize the cars.
2) Having our second child. I am scared of the whole TTC thing (my daughter was a surprise) & pregnancy. I was told I would have problems carrying because of the shape of my uterus & that broke my heart. I worry that we'll have trouble getting pregnant or I will miscarry. Of course, my first pregnancy was perfectly normal so this fear may be silly.
3) I'm claustrophobic. Very. I hate elevators, small spaces, or croweded places. I get really tense.

Re: Whats Scares the #$%& out of you?
#1 A family member or close friend becoming terminally ill or debilitated
#2 being unemployed or fiscally unstable
I can handle spiders / mice and the rest... I just can't deal with things that are super-catastrophic

Re: Whats Scares the #$%& out of you?
1) Being a bad parent. Echoing the sentiments above.
2) Divorce. The thought of DH and my relationship deteriorating to the point where we'd want to call it quits, even decades from now? Scary.
3) Driving over bridges. I hate this, even though I drive over as many bridges as necessary. I'm OOT and during planning, had to drive over tons of bridges each way. I fear losing control of the car, tumbling overboard, and drowning.
