My Sister has An Irrational Fear Of Blankets.
Re: My Sister has An Irrational Fear Of Blankets.
Ah, yes, vertigo... So annoying how its effect varies so much.
I've never really had it that bad... mainly just when I was climbing a two-metre high wooden hut when I was eight. But I've never forgotten the feeling and occasionally I still feel spikes of it in high places.
Indeed. Fine while on the roof of a flat one day, then get goosebumps looking out of my bedroom window the next.

Arachibutyrophobia - Fear of Peanut Butter sticking to the roof of your mouth.
Don't you just live in fear of the times that happens?....

I'm mildly annoyed when bread sticks to the top of my mouth. But a fear of it? What?ecyor0 wrote:Arachibutyrophobia - Fear of Peanut Butter sticking to the roof of your mouth.
I guess Grengophobia would be a fear of awesome. Which is understandable when you consider that most awesome is dangerous. (E.G Chainsaws, fire, explosions, lasers, rocket powered laser chainsaws that are also on fire, etc.)

And not to forget the can of awesome and Percy inside it.

Re: My Sister has An Irrational Fear Of Blankets.
The thing that I never understood about vertigo is that it often makes you dizzy when you're high up... But surely dizzy is the last thing you want to be when you could easily fall over and... well, fall off.
Dumbass bodily functions.

I wondered about that so much in my earlier years that I ended up getting dizzy when I tried to think of it again... Then I realised the Irony of it all and gave up thinking about it completely.

I used to have an INTENSE fear of clipping my nails. It felt like spiders were crawling all over me when i did. But i dont have that phobia anymore. (Its a good thing too, or my toenails would cut through my shoe. XP)

vertaichmophobia- fobia of falling of a cliff with pointy objects belowinvertin wrote:I'll google it.
EDIT: Uh. I'll just google the one for cliffs and the one for spikes and put the names together...
Aichmophobia is the phobia of spikes (well, technically the phobia of needles and pointy things, but spikes count), but I can't find anything for cliffs or the bottoms of cliffs. *shrugs*
Re: My Sister has An Irrational Fear Of Blankets.
Vertigo is when you cant tell wich way's up or down, like in an avalanche. 
Re: My Sister has An Irrational Fear Of Blankets.
seem like it would be pretty easy in an avalanche, just look at which direction the rocks and snow are falling.
Re: My Sister has An Irrational Fear Of Blankets.
Now that I think about it, I do have a weird fear. The fear of heights.
No, not the fear of falling off of heights.
No, not the fear of being high up.
I am literally terrified whenever I look at a tall building and I still have no idea why.
"HOLY CRAP SHIP FUDGE! LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT FREAKING TREE! AAAAAAAAHHHHH!"
And I'm also fine on a plane for some reason.
"I'M LIKE, THOUSANDS OF FEET IN THE AIR AND THE ONLY THING STOPPING ME FROM FALLING OUT IS A THIN SHEET OF METAL AND A BUNCH OF DOORS AND IT'S FUDGING AWESOME!"

I've got arachnophopia, which is pretty normal I suppose, and that clown one too but I forget what it is. Not heights though. Oh and I remember that pickle thing, lol that was funny.
