Fear can be a good thing…it’s that “fight-or-flight” response that keeps us out of harm’s way.
A Reddit stream yesterday asked “What’s an oddly specific fear you have?”
Here’s just some of the responses:
- “Someone’s hiding under my car and is going to slice my Achilles tendon when I unlock the door”
- “I’ll die in the shower and my family will find me naked”
- “Looking at mirrors in the dark or when I’m alone in the bathroom”
- “Walking up staircases where the back/space between the stairs is open. It feels like I’m going to slip through”
- “Ice skating, slipping on the ice and someone accidentally slicing my fingers off”
We ALL have irrational fears…what’s yours?
