My phobias are
Mirrors
Dark rooms
Social settings, even going to the grocery store
Having to talk to people I don't know really, really well
Phone calls
Driving
Clowns
Spiders, snakes, scorpions
Creepy crawlies of just about any kind
Getting pregnant (I've had three miscarriages and I'm afraid of another.)

I have necrophobia. It usually surfaces late at night when I am alone and my mind starts to wander. It will suddenly strike me that one day, I am going to die and I will have a panic attack so severe that I can't breathe. Based on that, I am also terrified of the dark. I'm not sure if it can be considered a phobia, but I am afraid of anything having to do with sensory deprivation.

I can't think of any of my smaller phobias at the moment, but I do have bigger ones.
My biggest if os statues, manequinns, and dead things. I have Always found anything that looks human, or was alive at one point, but is not any longer scary.
The other is Thunderstorms. I hate them they make me very uneasy, especially if there is lightning.

I can relate to the storm phobia. But that's more circumstantial than anything..I survived the southern outbreak in April 2011.

Wow that's intense yikes! I'm scared of storms just because where I lived before there was never any thunder or lightning sweatdrop
That must have been terrifiying how are you doing now?

@Violet: Much better since I've been on this powerful anti-anxiety med, but I still have to curl up in my bed with a big blanket when it storms. Ah well, at least it's not the panic attacks I got last year. And it also helps that there was like two storms this past spring. XD

Hmmmm. I know I have a really odd phobia that comes and goes. Sometimes I cant look up at the sky. I'm am scared of falling but looking up is a different story. My muscles lock up and then I get dizzy and have to look down. Otherwise mirrors, spiders, getting water in my ears, being crowded, being left alone and big dogs. Another being not able to touch my feet to the bottom of a pool. I can swim in a deep end no problem however if I think my feet are reaching to touch the bottom and there is no bottom within reach, I have a panic attack.

This happened at my graduation party. I could have drowned had it not been for my friend Jamie guiding me over to a wall while talking quietly to me.

I'm Agoraphobic, Claustrophobic, Emetophobic, afraid of the dark, afraid of crowds, sometimes I'm afraid of sleep (because I don't dream often and all I see is nothingness) but not enough that I've never not slept, and I have a fear of being alone because of abandonment issues.

The Agoraphobia and the Emetophobia are the worst because they go hand-in-hand. :
