i was just wandering if anyone has any ways of dealing with irrational fears of things...
 
or if they would like to share theirs.
 
i have this fear which sounds stupid but whenever i think of this shape which is a sort of looming arrangement of downward facing tri angles, i lose sleep and get a deep dreading in the pit of my stomach...
 
so as i said, any advice on dealing with this fear?
 
 
i would prefer it if no one mocks anything in this thread.
 
and yes this is a serious topic.

				most of my fears are really strange, i can't really explain them... because they don't make any sence.
 
there before... i don't fears...even my nightmares are enjoined...some how... i think, i only fear that my family and friends can be hurt. ^^
 
But its not really something i can fear...but something i care about.

				In my AP Psychology class my senior year of high school we had to do a 25-page research paper on a psychology-related topic approved by the teacher. I ended up doing mine on "scolionophobia," or fear of school. Lol. Needless to say, I actually had somewhat of a fun time doing my research paper, though I wasn't able to find more than a handful of qualified references.

				my fear is kinda strange, im claustrofobic, but only in rooms in wich i can't move, so when i am in a small room im fine. 
 
but for example i am going to wear a helmet for like snowboarding im going crazy i want it off, but the strange thing is, i dont have that unless i think about it.

				I have no phobias or extreme fears.
 
 
Although i guess the only thing that scares me is the unknown.
 
Lol, I guess thats alot of things.

				I'm.... Not really scared of anything.
 
I mean sure you can startle me by appearing out of nowhere with a chainsaw and say boo, but that's just the brain reacting to sudden change.

				The one thing I fear most is the thought of someone else, or more commonly something else, where I can't see it (usually in the dark), watching me from close by. Occasionally, in the night, something might fall from my desk or bookcase and even though I often know what it is, it scares me to death. The instant it happens, I always stop, close my eyes, and I don't move for the next hour or so (or until I fall asleep) in fear of turning around and opening my eyes to someone or something else staring me in the eyes.
 
 
I can probably safely say that that's the only thing I am scared of.

				My only fear is cockroaches, height and sometimes being underwater - the frequency of the type of sound can really get to my head - it literally seems to get amplified like 10X

				I have fear for heights (not really extreme but a little) and claustrophobia (but I'm working on it and I'm almost over it).

				| Completely irrational fear of needles. Don't know why, it never actually really hurt or turned out to be a bad experience, but can't help it. Have to look away, but I'm fine once it's in my arm.
