Mine is snakes....I hate them and have no idea why. I'm that bad that I check the toilet and have to ensure bathroom door is always shut, even went through a stage of thinking they'd slither up the outside wall and in through an open window lol.

Water
I have no idea why, I dont recall having a bad experience with water as a child
I physically break into cold sweats and start shaking if I see pools etc
I doubt I'll ever over come it, I have had full on panic attacks in the past when people have tried to force me to go in, I have lashed out and really hurt people trying to make them let go of me |

Moths and butterflies...I don't think I'll ever overcome it, I've been known to ask work colleagues to remove either from the workplace and last time I had to swipe one of those huge, hairy moths in my house (which the fecking cat brought in), I threw a tea towel on it, jumped up and down on it for a minute or two wearing my walking boots, put marigolds on to remove the remains into a new bin bag and then threw up in the loo...hopeless case  |

Perhaps If you live in the African plains or in the out back of Australia you might even get a tarantula Too..  |

Used to be scared of spiders. Think it was learned behaviour because when i was little i loved bugs and watching them do their thing and i wasn't scared of spiders then.
I heamorraged and crashed once, not really been scared of anything since. Also have PTSD that's a lot better now, so don't really feel emotions like fear any more, they're blocked out.
I'm still not keen on creepy clowns but don't see many of those knocking about so it's ok, i don't need to get over that. |

That reminded me of the time my snake went up the back of the fire
Had to get a guy from the gas board to come take my fire out to try and get the snake out
Noone told him when they sent him out he just had the job down as taking the fire out and cleaning it, when he took the fire off I got a heat lamp and put it infront of the fire to try and attract the snake, the guy asked what I was doing so I told him, he nervously looked up the back of the fire, made eye contact and said jesus how big is it, i said about 14 ft, he shot out the front door and refused to come and put the fire back on  |

I'm not irrationally claustrophobic but the thought of being trapped without anyone knowing scares the shit out of me... should we be telling the interwebs out darkest fears....I'm actually even more scared of winning the lottery and having to retire to a tropical island. |

I don't like spiders but I wouldn't say it was a phobia...
Slugs on the other hand... I get a bit of a cold sweat if I have to go out and it's dark and rainy. HATE the popping and the way your feet slide when you step on ones you couldn't see.
But don't have the same problem with snails... Go figure.

Hairy people! Bodily hair on shoulders and a back makes me freak out.
Yes, snakes is another one. Thankfully they seem to have better things to do than slither around my house. |

Poor guy. Think I'd have wet myself lol.
I took my daughter to meet some exotic animals just before Christmas, was happily stroking a meerkat to turn around almost face to face with a python. I did brave it and touch its tail after my daughter held it but I was shaking the whole time we were there. |

They feel quite nice, they can get a little clammy if to cold but if at the right temperature I think they feel nice, really soft, they have a bad reputation but its unjustified in my opinion, I used to do volantry work at the local reptile rescue when I lived back home and foster the over spill at my home till the animals were rehomed, I love them but the look on some peoples faces when they came to my home made me realise not everybody shares my love |

Swingers - I can't help but imagine I'm going to be attacked by a load of Swingers and be forced into having all sorts of weird but wonderful sex with them! Terrified, totally terrified!
Yes I know, my doctor has already told me, its a totally irrational fear  |

"Do you have one and if so what and think you're ever overcome it.?
Me first - heights and think I never will."
Hate heights...recently watched some videos of these russian dudes climbing cranes with no safety harness!! 
Left my palms a bit sweaty!
Biggest fear is climbing a tall structure (like a crane) then having to climb back down...i'm taking out a mortgage for a helicopter rescue if i have too! |

I'm with those who hate cotton wool, especially when it goes anywhere near my mouth.. Makes the dentist an even more difficult experience!
And in no particular order..
Moths/Butterflies
Wasps
Birds
Clowns
Spiders
Cats
So not much really  |

"Possessive men "
I'm with you. Possessive people are blumin horrible. I get headaches thinking about it, mind you they'll not like me as I am the independent sort to happily bugger off abroad etc when I want.
I'm not one for the insecure. |
