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

I fear alot- my family dying or being hurt is a major fear- getting to be so old i can't care for myself- dying too young-
heights- rats- snakes-
that i won't learn what i'm here to learn (which is what?) -that i will suffer in some weird physical way like my organs turning to stone or losing a limb or eye(s)
too many fears to list really :)

^ I fear sickeningly happy, heterosexual couples taking over Bluelight.

Isn't the world enough? ;)
 
greatest fears

My greatest fear is the dark,so I sleep with the t.v on. Also hearing the phone ring late at night, that something has happened to my daughter.
 
I used to be invincible. I fell off things, through things, hit cars, got hit by cars, got ran over by agricultural machinery . . . . Never hurt (badly) once

Then I got smashed up and since then I am scared of my own mortality. Also scared of fucking myself up again. I am not supposed to run, jump, dance, play contact sport . . .

Not a major complaint that's for sure, but since then (about three years ago) I secondguess myself on everything and just have less all round confidence in everything:\
 
^It's better being level headed, than feeling immortal isn't it? Maybe with some therapy (or something such) you can find the middle ground in between fearless, and anxious? Just a thought =)


My greatest fear is losing loved ones. I'm Borderline, and with the anxiety, paranoia, and depression it all becomes one big mess. I'm like a child I guess, living off extremes, it's either I love you, or I hate you, my way or I just don't want anything, etc.. I tend to push my loved ones away over something small (e.g. not getting attention usually) then feeling bad, or I keep them very close while still completely anxious about losing them. Usually with females, I suppose my youth, and past relations explain that side.

Interesting thread, I was thinking Orwell when I read "Room: 101", well done lol.
 
suffocation or drowning.

when i was younger one of my brothers friends tried to drown me in a public pool as a joke or as revenge or something, i dont quite remember. all i remember is barely even realizing what was happening until some lady started yelling at him.

it always freaks me out now when people come up behind me when im swimming or if someone puts something over my whole face.

im also afraid of losing my younger brother to the world of drop outs, the unemployed, and alcoholism bc i know that these are things he DOES NOT want and make him feel terrible and watching him feel terrible makes me feel terrible.

i guess im also scared of hating my life as a conformist college graduate (not to say that being a college graduate=conformity), working my ass off to achieve something i dont even want.
 
yeah, well interesting, i'd like to know if everyone's fears are still the same?!

i'll add mine..fear of people/crowds, fear of never being in love before i die, and fear of never achieving at least one of my goals/dreams. and fear of never learning to stop caring what others think and just live for myself.
 
i have many. fear of pain, fear of deep water, fear of no consciousness after death, and of course, fear of fear itself.
 
Hurting someone else is my biggest fear, and losing someones trust. I hate those two things very much. I'm not afraid of death so I'm not going to put that down as one of the things that scares me... I got over that when I was very young, I've had a lot of near death experiences unfortunately.

My biggest fear is one of my kids dying before I do.

But at the same time I'm afraid of what would happen to them if I died...helps keep the drug demons away.
 
^ PA.......You will find love.....she will be a very lucky girl :)

Its funny to see my fears a few years later.......its like looking at a diary from years ago:)

My fears are still basically the same-
thought I would add suffering throughout my life,a war (as in guys on the ground and bombs from above) happening in my area,not having children or if i do them dying before me, my husbaand dying (which was listed above but is so big a fear it needs to be listed again) and.......
being in some sort of accident that i am paralyzed......
 
fuckin tornadoes, spiders, the ocean.

but when it comes to real every day fear and paranoia, the state. and any bureaucratic or administrative organization for that matter.
 
I'm not really afraid of death (not saying I wouldn't be scared shitless if I had a knife to my throat). I fear the pain of death, and I have the 'instincts' to fear death. I just don't fear the afterlife... whether I wither away into dust, or I go to some crazy place.

I am, however, afraid of loneliness, which is ironic, because I'm lonely all the time.

A change in my personality also scares me. At least a change that's worse. I'm really scared of becoming a selfish douche, or someone who just doesn't give a shit about anybody else. I'm afraid of losing my intellectual (almost elitist) ideals, too. I dunno, I just like most of my personality.


I can't imagine what O'Brien would come up with when it was my turn for the room.

Oh yeah! I used to be really afraid of tornadoes, too. It kinda turned into a fascination later, though.
