Re: Do you have any phobias ?
Water in which I cannot see the bottom: I've been know to get panic attacks when swimming in such circumstances, unless someone is with me. Strangely enough last summer I crossed a small lake of 120ft deep and swam about a mile or so...but there was 3 of us, so no problem at all. I did get into a panic later that day what I had to swim around a patch of waterplants in shallow water: I stumbled over an old pier whose remnants were hidden just below the surface and fucking freaked out. Nobody realized I had an attack until I came up the shore and just fell down exhausted from fear - all i could do when swimming back was concentrating on not hyperventilating and losing it.
Other than that...nothing that I know of. For those that hate bugs: don't go to Africa...in the night they try to climb through your mosquito net and die from the repellent in it, and in the morning you'll wake up covered with dead bugs sometimes, or be rolling over them
