I think that how you spell it, phobias. Anyway, excuse me if I am wrong. Who would think I was in top set for English? Ah well.

Ok, most of us have phobias (If you spell it like that) something that we are 'scared' or 'afraid' of. Most phobias have names such as Arcanicphoiba (How was I meant to spell that?) where people are scared of Spiders. There are many names for diffrent phobias.

Many of us maybe even scared to tell our friends of our phobias as they are so pathetic.

So, how many of you have phobias of something?

I have one of Pigeons :-<, I walk down the town and try and dodge them. in fact one swooped at me the other day protecting his territory.

My phobia of pigeons started when I was walking down the town one day and suddenly, out of nowhere, flew a pigeon out of a bin. i did'nt even see it come. It shocked me so much that now I hate going near them, I walk in my posse down the town and silently dodge them.

So what are you phobias and how did you get them? Have you ever tryed to get rid of your phobia and how?

Does anyone know the phobia of Pigeons? LoL!

And yes, I am afraid of Trafalger Square.

okay...i'm scared of electric sockets. It all started with my PC. Pc uses quite a lot of power right? well added with my speakers and sub-woofer it uses quite a lot of power. u can hear the hum of the electric even when the speakers are off. i must have about about 4 plugs in total all going into this dodgy adapter. Whicj is plugged into another adapter because it dont reach the wall socket.

Well one day i was plugging in the socket and BANG! there was a huge white sort of spark. So i thought oh well, s**t happens and put a new fuse in. but this happened two more times in the same week. So i have never unplugged the computer since. U know what, i think its alive!

Yours is more serouis then mine (Pigeons) because yours is more life threatning. You have a reason to be scared.

I suppose though you see more plug sockets then Pigeons!

I know someone who has an intense fear of buttons. He can't stand the sight of them.

I have a HUGE phobia of sharks. I'm absolutely terrified of them. If I go swimming in the sea then I never go out any further than about 10 metres.

It's funny really, I'm scared s------- by them but am completely fascinated by them. If you ever get a look at my Magic Cookie then you'll see that most of it is made up of shark sites, I've got tons of pictures saved and all that kind of rubbish...

But anyway, yeah sharks. Horrified, terrified and completely freaked out by 'em!

Pigeons are just rats with wings. Bats are too.
