Friday Fun Thread ~ Weird Fears



Recommended Posts

Am I the only psycho? Is anyone else afraid of the following:

Fiding dead bugs inbetween toilet paper sheets when going potty.

Lifting the lid to find a decapitated head staring at you.

Wierd fears huh?

The fear of pain is pretty normal, but I think I'm a bit crazy with it. Being IN pain doesn't bother me so much as the idea of pain. Like, when I go to get a shot, I just get so worried that it's going to hurt, and I freak myself out, and then it does hurt a little, but it's like no big deal. I dunno.

Nothing so wierd as finding a head in my toilet tho. :)

Wondering if someone is hiding in the closet or under the bed. Ax murderers.

Where are the rest of the weirdos today? I know I'm not alone.

This isn't creepy wierd, but, if the toilet paper runs out while I'm going potty, I'm always afraid the toilet paper holder will fall into the toilet while I'm changing it. Never mind that my whole dadgum lap covers the seat and there's NO WAY it's getting past...every time it happens though, I worry the little springy thing will fall in. ???

I have that closet door thing going on, 42 y/o and still cant sleep with the closet door open. I must have been traumatized as a kid (come to think of it, as a kid we didnt have doors on the closets, maybe it is just the novelty of it??) I have a great big fear of cows, and dont even get me started on spiders.

Now, as for fears.......... The fear of some animal bitting my foot while lieing in bed. Or if I am near a car at night, something coming out and bitting my foot. I think I have this fear, cause I'm fat and have a heck of a time reaching my feet, and if there was some furry big tooth animal latched on to my tootsie's, I would be not be able to reach him and yank him off. Just the thought of it makes my toes curl up, and I pull my feet under the chair.

Delarla...you worry me sometimes

- what's with the head in the toilet? (lol)

My big fear (maybe not too wierd) is being blinded while driving down the road. Considering that it snows here in KY this has almost happened to me on several occassions after making the mistake of trying to clean my windshield and having the Water freeze on the glass.

Driving blind behind a semi truck on I65 is no fun...

2. Mike dying and me raising 3 kids alone.

3. Gaining my weight back.

4. Finding a rat(s) in my house.

So I'm the only one that lifts the lid to check for a head? Odd. But to be afraid of cows, odder. I adore cows. I can do without decapitated heads though. Better to voice your fear so it never really happens. Being afraid of animals biting your feet is a valid fear in my book considering my cat used to attack our feet in dead sleep. Freaky, indeed.

I've always been afraid of someone being under my car or under my bed. When I go to sleep at night, I can't hang my foot over the edge!! When I get in the car, I can't linger with my feet dangling. I'm afraid the person under my car has a knife & is going to take some good stabs at my feet.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
