Depends on who you're asking it of.
If it's what people fear in general:
1. Snakes
2. Spiders & bugs
3. Claustrophobia
4. Social phobia
5. Heights
If you're asking about personal fears:
1. Blenders
2. Plane propellers
3. Fans
4. Washing machines
5. Everything else remotely sharp that spins

WoW! What a scary question! I wasn't in this mind frame, but happy to answer. I do believe everyone is afraid of heights. Some hide it better than others. It doesn't bother me much, but, my husband is a contractor, and is up "high walking on 2x4s a lot." So, 1. heights 2. the dark. Again, every person I've ever known is cautious and wary in the dead darkness of black. The boogie monster may not be there, but a sudden turns, or steps may jump out at you. 3. Getting Lost. Kind of like the dark, when you aren't aware of your surroundings, it's frightening. ex: driving in a new town. 4. Loneliness. People are social animals. No one wants to be alone.. living or dying. 5. Financial collapse. walking a very fine line sometimes, makes it frightening, if we weren't able to support ourselves.
I hope everyone takes heed to make sure they surround themselves with happy thoughts. Take Care

The dark....if I can't see my hand in front of my face I will freak! Bugs any kind of bug if it crawls in my house I will kill it! The fear of being a lone! The fear of not knowing what tomorrow may bring! Large crowds of people freak me out too and that about sums it up!

Good Morning. Ya, at a Dogers game was the last time I was in a huge crowd (except the mall last weekend.) The hassel of parking is enough to steer me away.. and keeping track of my husband is an entirely different story!! I couldn't imagine having kids in a crowd. That's a talen few people have. Thinking 1 thing at a time is a great idea. Making a list and sticking to it.. not wandering into book stores or technical gadget stores is always a bad idea for me! Really, you "love bug" is adorable! Read you soon. Take Care!

I don't even try to keep up with my boyfriend in the mess of a huge crowd or the mall I get what I need and we meet back where we first start if we get lost in the mess so there is no panic!
