being underwater. I've always hated it.

I have a few phobias. Although most of them are related to my ptsd, I also have a fear of spiders, snakes and being indoors for a long amount of time (unsure if this has a name?)

I'm not sure if the fear of being indoors too long has a technical name. Closest I could think of is cabin fever and ecophobia (fear of home) but neither of those are the same.

ecophobia is one of mine, although they are not the same as you said. I'm sure I'll find a name for it eventually lol

I hate heights. When I was a kid, my parents driving over a bridge had me totally on edge because the bridge was up in the air. I also hate stinging bees.

Not sure if it has a name or not... my biggest fear is popping myself in the mouth with a wrench or ratchet while working under a vehicle... I have visions of that when I am turning wrenches... safe so far.

I wouldn't call it a phobia but I am so afraid of snakes it's not even funny

I don't like heights if I don't have a sense of security, like a hand rail or something. I have noticed as I get older that I dont fear heights as much, so I don't know. I have had claustrophobia set in a few times but I don't think about that a lot. I'm an HVAC technician so small spaces and being high up come with the territory.

I wouldn't say I'm afraid of heights but I'm terrified of falling from high places. If I go over one of them bridges that's deep I don't look down lol

RIGHT?!?!?! I once had a brown recluse, estimated size that would cover the entire palm area of my hand with legs extended, climbing up my apartment wall. My soul nearly left my body.

OmG!

Definitely don't blame you on that!!

Phew. If I get too high up off the ground or see others close to a cliff or something, my hands and feet start sweating. I'm glad you're able to still do your job. I'm sure it's gotta be nerve racking!
