fidet: Katsaridaphobia- Fear of cockroaches, I fear am die.......As an undergraduate, I once left my house around 10pm for a friend's place 'cos I saw a big cockroach.[color=#550000]

You are my twin. I still can't explain how something as small as a cockroach made me miserable in school. As an undergraduate then, I feared going home after night classes because of cockroaches. As soon as I'm about to insert my key into the keyhole, I'd start trembling and praying I don't see any cockroach in my room..it was that bad.

There was a day I screamed and almost hit my head hard against the wall cos I sighted a flying roach on entering my room. I started shouting for help and hostel mates thought something terrible had happened.

I've tried so hard to overcome that fear, but no success..

afam4eva:
This is the exact same reason why i hate traveling. That's why i feel sorry for people who travel too often because the more you travel the more likely you'll be involved in an accident and the more likely you'll see Jesus. I don't travel except it's absolutely necessarily.

Generally my phobia is the fear of dieing:

When walking by the road side, i almost watch all the cars passing to make sure none has lost control because i don't want the newspapers the next day to read "Car loses control kills ten" - God forbid

When i'm on a bike or in a car and the driver stops besides a trailer, i usually come out and run before the trailer will fall because this kind of news is very common - Tufiakwa

If i'm crossing the road, i always even if it's a one-way road, i always look left and right and if no car is coming, i beat Usain bolts record by running with a speed of light. Big boy no dey for that one oo. Because if you do shakara for road ou must be ready to do shakara in coffin. Death is no respecter of persons.

I don't even attempt to quarrel or fight with people because in my mind i'm thinking "What if this guy gives me one punch and i don't wake up, what will happen?".

I try as much as possible not to annoy any of my clients because in my mind they might decide to assassinate me. I was scared in my pants the day a client called me after i blocked his website and told me that he will deal with me in this lagos. O boy the kind fear wey catch me that day ee. If i just see any guy passing by, i would think he was sent to me that he would bring out a gun and shoot me - Tufiakwa.



LWKMD! I bn tink say na only me dey ds level. Scared of heights also.

Claustrophobia.....I could remember the day a friend of mine locked the door to my room and went out with the key because I was sleeping. I woke up and started shouting the moment I noticed it. The thought that was running through my head were enormous. What if the house suddenly catch fire, how would I escape? What if a ghost appear now, how would I run? What if a snake appear from anywhere, how would I survive? What if, what if kept on appearing. Thank God I had credit on my phone which I used in calling him and at the same time gave him the warning of his life never to try such. When he opened the door, I went to church the next Sundayto give thanks to God.

That's why I go on my own JEJE. If you slap me I go turn the other side for you. I don't want to go to JAIL! I can't survive been confined in a day for an hour.
