I'm not really scared of much outside of rational caution, which itself kind of bothers me. I guess what I'm most nervous of is driving, and even then it's more because I can't trust randos to not t-bone me and because at least once a month there's an accident right in front of me as a pedestrian.
 
I have a irrational and severe fear of snakes. If I see a snake on TV i physically recoil and try to make distance. If I see a snake in a article in picture form, I physically avoid touching the picture or getting my fingers close to the picture.

I beat resident evil 4 only once because snakes after the church level scare the FUCK out of me.

Tl;dr- snakes suck
Ophidiophobia

snails and slugs make me wince for some reason, while things like planarians, flatworms and the like don't. Don't know what thats about. It really is only snails and slugs that make me not want to look at them.
Molluscophobia

Cockroaches. When I was a little kid, I had one crawl up my leg when I was taking a bath and in another instance, one landed on my hand when I ate out at a restaurant. After those experiences, I always avoid staying in rooms with cockroaches and make it a point to keep my room extra clean.

I’m a boobophobe.

I HATE BOOBS. Please, everyone, do NOT send boobs to me. If you send me boobs, I will cry. I will definitely not masturbate to them. Don’t try to upset me by sending me boobs. I BEG YOU DON’t SEND BOOBS.
I pretend to be afraid of sex and pretending I need help overcoming that fear actually works. Although you need to even be capable of getting that far in the first place.

Blue footed booby, no I didn't reverse image search I actually honestly knew that already.

Tachophobia & acrophobia, aka fear of speeds and fear of height. The former manifested when I first went on a rollercoaster and had to almost be pried away from the thing by the staff after it stopped. The latter happened when as a kid I went up an old, creaky, shaky, swaying watchtower in the woods during a windy weather. I came back down hugging the railing on all fours, and to this day I'm iffy about fucking ladders. These two combined into fear of flying. I've never boarded a plane and never will unless I get wasted beforehand.
I just luv having me feet planted firmly on the ground.
 
I have an aversion to large dogs, which is weird as I owned two (and yes one was a pit mix). I never was harmed nor felt threatened at all; matter of fact living out in rural Oklahoma they were a comfort for a single woman way out in the boonies.

High bridges over water freak me out a bit. Traveling to New Orleans and crossing the long bridge made me a tad nervous.

Other than that, I don't afraid of anything. Fear is a product of the mind and as I was taught by my favorite childhood book, "Julie of the Wolves," - when fear strikes, change your ways (paraphrased for specificity). Also from my good friend, an elder of the Oneida Tribe Turtle Clan (RIP), who always said "mind over matter."
 
I'm just going to say it - coulrophobia and trypophobia are fucking Reddit tier meme phobias and nobody actually has them, they just say they do to be quirky and weird.

Same with that one fucking phobia that's the fear somewhere somehow a duck is watching you - big 'my name is Katy but u can call me teh PeNgU1n oF d00m!!!!!!!! *holds up spork*' energy from that one.
