Room 101: what is , or was, your greatest fear.

I fear a Stopping of my thoughts
Small spiders.*Getting over it though. big spiders have never bothered me*
Everyone i know leaving and never wanting anything to do with me again

and when i'm having an episode. everything scares me. every sounds, the silence all of it makes it all worse. Thanks god i don't have them as often anymore. Hyperventilating because of paranoia is not fun at all...
 
becoming physically or mentally handicapped

losing close friends/family

some social situations

becoming a statistic
 
I truely fear failure at everything I'm shooting for in life, and I guess loneliness. I don't know why I fear loneliness, but then again I can be surrounded by all my best of friends and sometimes still feel alone. I need to manage my depression before I become truely happy with my life.

I've tried many different drugs, and I've basically been told I'm probably bi-polar and got meds thrown at me for that, but decided against taking them right now. Obviously, if I am bi-polar, all those SSRI's that I tried did nothing but make it worse, which makes sense, so it all may be very well true.
 
The thing I am most afraid of is bush fucking with the constitution so he can run for a 3rd term as president.

Nonsense; fear is essential to our survival as a species. If there were no fear, there would be no order; the law would be useless. You wouldn't be safe, because your workmate might decide to throw a cup of piping hot coffee/shite into your face for generally talking crap. See?

Coffee. My God. How do people even drink that stuff? It tastes awful. But I expect it's an acquired taste, like rotten meat, or coal.

Other than losing my mind, I would say that I fear being imprisoned for something that I did not feel that was, morally, a crime. If I'd just shot my sister, then yes, perhaps a long prison sentence might teach me a lesson--several I expect; criminal lessons--and I'd happily go with my handcuffs tearing into my wrists; the-filth holding my arms just a little too painfully.
 
unhappiness, i also have a kind of social phobia
sometimes i just would rather block everyone out and pretend i'm
alone then try to meet new people because the anxiety is overwhelming.
Psychedelics have helped me conquer many fears including death.
I used to fear the dark.
I still am terrified of closed spaces and i always think of getting stuck in a really narrow tunnel or some shit.
 
being in a situation where i face the undeniable fact that i am going to drown momentarily, and then drowning.
 
Kerrigan fear is not needed for proper order and functioning laws/government, that's just sillyness.. Back to subject, I have a fear of some insects (generally larger looking strange ones or centipedes, no fear of spiders (actually had some pretty fun times with seeing lots of spiders everywhere while on salvia :p) or anything else. I can't figure out the fear of some bugs, I only encounter them on rare occasion (although on 2 subsequent acid trips I saw the same type of huge bug in my room in the same spot, didn't help me :p), but there's really no form of logic/reason to support fear of them, they just suck to have crawling on you or if you've got an infestation or something and it makes me sooo mad I can't get over it. Any tips? :p
 
Fear is silliness? If it wasn't necessary, do you think it would exist? Of course it's necessary for order, peace and functioning laws.

Do you believe that I don't wander through life wondering who I could successfully kill and rob without being caught? Without fear, I'd kill everyone. The police would be useless because half the street would be gone by the time they'd arrived.
 
I didn't say fear was, but it being necessary for order or law is. It merely exists, because it's simply something that's developed over time from primal fear of primates/caveman and been passed down to us. I've pondered murder and stealing before, but deciding whether or not you can get caught has nothing to do with fear imo. You have to accept the calculated risk of going to jail for X numbers of years either by poor luck or doing a bad job. Laws are merely punishments people have made for what people almost always consider immoral things. Fear is just some instinct attached to our egos on a deep level, just an unnecessary thing we're born with that I've managed to eliminate from my mind.
 
My greatest fear still is PRISON. I couldn't handle a cage. I've been to jail it was true misery. I couldn't take prison. ANd I know anything I'd be going for would land me alot of years there so Prison is my only fear.

Really my only fear....

Death is absolutely nothing to be scarred of
 
Yes, because it happens quickly. There's no such thing as a slow death; one minute you're alive, the next, whoosh, you're dead.

I still feel that fear is a necessary control along with anxiety, to prevent certain actions from causing us harm. You have not eliminated it from your mind, but perhaps learned to control it? Fear is not to be removed, but rather mastered; it is a requirement.
 
My biggest fear is waking up tomorrow; but I will.

The will is what irritates my more than anything. My cowardice is pathetic.
