I have an irrational fear of my own blood. Even a bit of orange pen on my hand once made me feel ill.
Blood which is not my own does not give me the same reaction.
I dont care about anyones blood enless its from my victim
You probably think that because your bleeding something is wrong with you.
While if other people bleed its not happening to you.
I honestly have no intention of getting over my fear of bugs and insects. Nu-uh
Parents once suggested letting 10 wasps sting me to get rid of my fear. I punched the **** out of each wasp before it got near me.
That doesn't sound like something a phobe would do...Usually it'd just be run or panic.
Also, I like the feeling of getting shots. It's kind of an exciting sensation. Even the ones that are slightly painful and/or afterward numbing are cool. But giving a blood donation or similar, I'd never do because I'm underweight and it just seems weird.

Ide never give blood because I dont think most people deserve it.
EDIT:I mean if my family or someone like that needs it maybe a little. But I dont think anyone would want my blood considering all the cholesterol I eat.

For most recipients it's probably either die or take what blood you're given, so I wouldn't really let cholesterol stop donating your blood.
Fear of embarrassment,
Fear of Heights (rollercoaster wise)
Fear of being social (I can't strike up a conversation and I can't make acquaintance with people even if I know they don't care if I screw up)
Fear of spiders.
I'll go parachuting on day to get over my fear of heights. My fear of screwing up makes me unsocial and only have a select group of friends.

Its more of an "Oh **** I am bleeding, come on dammit stop bleeding, **** why won't this stop bleeding, FUUUUU!!!!" and then I start panicking.
Do band-aids help? Thank goodness you're not a hemophiliac, though.
I used to fear heights in the extreme. I've managed to severely reduce the fear, but not totally overcome it. To this day I still can't do roller coasters. At all.
Anymore I just say **** it and force myself to over come it. Fear is going to do nothing but hold me back(there are exceptions), so I just try remind myself of how fear works on the biological level. For some reason that causes it to ease a bit.

Well when I was about nine or ten, I realized that I was going to die. I was vaguely aware of death, had brushed with it before, but now I realized I would die someday. I was at a sleepover and started randomly sobbing. I ran home and threw up, and spent the next two days sobbing uncontrollably. My parents thought I had been bullied at school or something. But then after I was done crying I was completely fine. Still am.
In my experience the best way to overcome your fears is to acknowledge the fact that you only have one life to live. Say to yourself "______ is in my way. **** it. I will not be deterred." We all only have one life here. Don't accept mediocrity. Take what you want. **** everything else. Morality is important but don't let petty fears hold you back from what you could have. Run through the dark corners of your soul and proudly pronounce "I'm not afraid anymore."
I have a fear that the world will end and that I'll have nothing to do with it.
The world WILL end. Problem is, we don't really know when.
But we do know in about 4 billion years our solar system is going to explode in a blast so epic we cannot even imagine the amount of energy going on there.
Well, I haven't really been keeping up-to-date with these things but last I heard on a documentary of the Universe, our sun is too small to actually explode, rather it will swell up and consume the first couple planets and slowly jettison out all the excess gas instead of the average.. Type Ia supernova.. I think it's Type Ia.. Ah I can't remember.
If we could live to see that day.. It's supposed to be one of the most beautiful things we could ever see in the Universe :<
Oh crap sorry, didn't realize how long this post was.. I guess I really am bored! xD

I have Autism. Some call it a blessing, most call it a curse.

Yes, the sun itself is a C2 class star (yellow dwarf) and will expand and consume everything up to mars.
Then cool down to a tiny white dwarf and then lost it's gravitational pull, which causes surviving planets to swing in a direction into deep space.
But they don't know for sure if our star is going to do this, we haven't got much exact data on the far regions.
Also OT, I don't fear this day. Even though it is coming, no matter how long.
You know we can't stop it, interfere.
But if that time comes, we should have made a big ship somehow and hang around some other star.
Haha, yeah! Some people fear these kind of facts.. Instead I find these things about the Universe so amazing, the endless limit of power it can produce! *coughQuasarscough* :tongue.gif:
Buuut this is getting a bit off-topic. Hehe.

I used to have a terrible fear of the dark. When I was around 12, I went into mining caves near my house alone. Inside one of the larger cave rooms, I sat in complete darkness for 2 hours. After that, I had no fear of the dark, and afterwards often had happy cave dreams. Of course, Minecraft is a natural game for me :V
I was also afraid of spiders into my teenage years. To get over it, I kept some house spiders in a jar for a month, and fed them. I let them climb of my hand, etc. no more fear of spiders.
The key to overcoming yourself to any fear is simple: expose yourself to the source of the fear. Do this repeatedly, and you decondition yourself to the association between stimulus and fear response.

Retired StaffI also fear drowning.
The first one is scarier though.
=O Does sound scary. But everyone pretty much was before and they got along fine. Except with chamber pots instead of plumbing and what not.
Socializing and Lying. (As in bending the truth, not lying on my back.)
Having Asperger's sucks :<
