and i my mind started playing tricks on me..

it was like what drug users call "a bad trip"

basically i was in bed and my mind was telling me that i was eating my teeth and my knuckles

ive never been so scared in my life

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by Weyzza on 09-24-2006 at 11:29 PM

I got a furry rat toy that could crawl on a surface or bed as my 3rd birthday gift.
It scared the shit out of me :dodgy:

I was afraid of the dark and also ghosts, aliens and such.

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by lordy on 09-25-2006 at 11:13 AM

I remember that I was meant to be in bed one night, and I went out into the lounge room, and my mum was watching a movie. I watched the movie for about a minute, but that minute was of a woman that had been put in a coffin and buried alive. Ever since then I've had a horrible fear of being buried alive. I have nightmares and such.

I'm also claustrophic since then, tight spaces make me think about being buried alive :P

Heights pretty much. I used to have dreams that I was somewhere normal (like a shopping centre for example) and for some reason there was a small gap in the floor on a high up floor. It was easy to make the jump, but in my dreams I would always mistime the jump and fall down :sad:

Still a little scared of heights...

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by Steven on 09-25-2006 at 12:04 PM

Im scared of falling from very high heights, and Still kinda scared
of bees. Anyone else share this problem? Once i was so scared (it could be my ad/hd pills making me anxuos) ((I can't spell sorry)) that Ididn't even want to take out the garbage because
what if a bee came and stung me? Out of fury!

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by John Anderton on 09-25-2006 at 12:36 PM

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by MeEtc on 09-25-2006 at 01:51 PM

The dehumidifier at my grandparents house. It was in thier basement, and would turn on randomly. It would scare me when it came on, just because it was loud and i wouldn't expect it.

Thunder, at least before I was 5. It's loud. 'Nuff said

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by stoshrocket on 09-25-2006 at 03:00 PM

The cookie monster and the big bird from seasamie street.... I mean, c'mon, if they caught me in a dark alley at my age i'd still be scared shitless :P

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by Lourix on 09-25-2006 at 03:14 PM

It had to be wasps.

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by Shondoit on 09-25-2006 at 09:21 PM

When I was about eleven years old, I saw the movie The Rock. It was about two guys who had to bring back stolen nervegas (well, it was a 16+ movie)
at some point in the movie, one of those green capsules of nervegas broke, and you'd see some guys uh... cripling away, disolving, whatever...
I couldn't sleep all night, and I was afraid for the color green for months

Also, 'bout a year ago, I was asleep, had a bad dream and woke up... I got out of my bed, and suddenly there was an arm sticking out of the wall, so I runned upstairs to the attick. But there the lights moved and stuff. It really scared the (...) out of me. Than I really woke up
It was so scary because I thought it was real, I dreamed that I woke up...

I'm not afraid of green anymore. I'm not afraid of anything, except for something unexpected

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by lizard.boy on 09-25-2006 at 10:30 PM

I was, and still am, freaked out by things touching me that I can't see or don't expect, either in the dark or underwater. (Underwater really freaks me out.

One thing i mostly got over was the fear of the dark. I could never go into our basement in the dark before we moved.

Also, to this day I'm definatly not fond of hights.

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by Voldemort on 09-25-2006 at 10:31 PM

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by dylan! on 09-26-2006 at 04:55 AM

only thing that really scared me was a dream I kept having and still but rarely have it....I cant really describe it but when I think about it I can just see it. my old house was in a bad neighborhood and I would always have nightmares about me going outside my house and everything was dark and zomby-like and there was dead bodies and blood everywhere and the light above my door had a dead baby hanging from it by a rope around its neck(part I remember most) and after the first time I had that nightmare later on that year my dad and I were in the back yard and he was building me a tree house sort of thing and I was sitting on the frame and our neighbor(bums) came running from the alley and ran into his house and I was like WTF and then a big guy that looked like the Big Show from wrestling wearing a drench coat pulled out a gun and I told my dad and we went to the basement and he called the police and they arrested him and another time that year someone was stabbed like 4 houses down on the corner of the block and ANOTHER time that year (I was at my mommies house(they were split up) but my daddy was home) and he works early in the morning and he woke up from a gunshot and he couldnt go to work because he couldnt leave the block as someone was shot next door in the house with the 1st incodent and he almost got fired but yeah... we moved but my dad really liked the house but not the neighbor hood so he bought it and now we own it but live somewhere else :cheesy:

RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by cloudhunter on 09-26-2006 at 09:16 AM

Well where shall I start :P

We once had this massive panda teddy and I had dreams it was gonna get me :cry:

There were the big winter boots like moon boots my dad used to have which I used to have dreams of them chasing me :(

Recurring dreams scare me... When I have a bad dream and it happens again and again... I used to dread going to sleep :(

The noise of the toilet flushing :S I know it sounds odd, but even until I was about 15 or 16 I used to be scared of it. I think it was just the loud noise. On that note, I was also scared of vacuum cleaners... Still have dread before they turn on but not when they are on.

Moths and spiders... still scare me even now (Little ones are ok). And wasps, but everyone has some kind of fear of them :P

I'm sure I have more, but can't think of them :P

lol. same here. So weird coz I brought this up in class like 2-3 weeks ago in Geography because we had to make a temperature chart thing of the seasons for an alien's planet. The alien's name was jellybottom. lol. :D

It (the clown) is the funniest movie ever. Remember how Georgy's paper boat goes into the drain & It takes it & lures him to him & then eats him & then later on when Geogy's brother opens a photo book or some type of book & blood comes out?

I was kinda woosy once when i was about 5 and they took us in a boat which was wobbling left to right. The guy who was rowing assured me nothing would happed (and nothing did happen) but i did feel it was odd. Not scared of it or anything though :P

I am not the most comfortable person in the world when it comes to leaning off high towers without being tied behind or something. Its just that when my CG shifts forward (off the building), i have to come back :P Call it fear or a sense to keep me safe :tongue:

I used/am scared of ghosts because at my old house the garage (which burnt down thanks to me & my nextdoor neighbour) was hauted & I'm also scared of heights, except for if I climb a really tall tree I'm not scared at all but if it's something high up other than a tree I am.

I think its because when you are in a tree u are grabing a bough* and when u are in other high places u arent holding something.. or there are just some ''Protections'' but you dont feel that much secure :P

And back on topic.. I was scared of ''it'' just like jchichuv.. now when i see one of those movies i just laugh :P..

I also am scared of things i dont know.. Or just to say it in other words ''Future''

How am i gonna die? would i succeed? that kind of things :P

*Not sure if thats the word :P..

I'm still scared of getting that, it would be the most horrible thing. If I got that every night I'd have to commit suicide.

I think I used to get that too. It's happened maybe 10 times in my life, one night 3 times in a row.

The first time I experienced it I was lying on my back and as I was falling asleep I tried to move, and found I couldn't. I was lying there on my back with my eyes open unable to move myself. It was scary, as I'd never experienced something like this before. I tried with all my power to move my legs or arms or anything and I found after 10 seconds I could move my feet a bit. Then I managed to move my leg, and I "snapped" out of it and could move my body again.

The second time I was laying on my stomach with my mouth covered by most of the pillow, about to fall asleep, and the same thing happened. Only this time, I felt like I couldn't breathe. I know I could breathe, obviously, because I'd been in that position for a while, but that's not what it felt like. I couldn't move myself and I thought I was suffocating. After 10 seconds of panic I was able to free myself from that state with a jolt.

The night it happened 3 times was the worst, I was lying there ready to fall asleep and for some reason I tried to move at all the wrong times. The moment I realised I was paralysed I could not keep calm, it really isn't bearable (for me) to know you're unable to move. After that I didn't really want to sleep anymore.

I'm glad that the only time I felt afraid of sleep was the night where it happened 3 times, because having a fear of sleeping would be really bad...

Yeah, i've had that happen before, but I think it happens to me only when I'm laying down funny, and I can't move one of my feet, and its copmpletly devoid of sensation.

Fortunately, it doesn't happen often to me (maybe once in the past year?)
RE: What were you scared of when you were young? by duck! on 09-28-2006 at 05:53 PM
