I’ve always thought I would die young , even when I was a very young child I used to tell my mum “ well I’m going to die young anyways “ , not majorly young like a child or teen but I have just have this what I can only describe as a gut feeling that I won’t take it till I’m 30

…And spiders I’m scared of spiders lol

Well this is strange because I’ve had the exact same fear. My whole life I’ve feared I will die young 30s/40s. I find this fear more petrifying now that I have kids. I try not to think about it

Well mine seems silly more haha. I'm terrified of shitting myself... like to the point I struggle to leave the house because of the fear that it may happen. And people say to me but it's never happened before, and I'm like yeah but the saying is there's a first time for everything 🥲 it got so bad at one point that I didn't leave the house for three days because I was having panic attacks at the thought of being away from a toilet. I don't even have gut issues!

Your fears are the same as mine 🥴 Idk why but I don't think I'll make it to my 40s

Getting lockjaw 😂 no idea why but since I was about 6 I’ve been terrified.

Always wanting children from when I've been young to be passing away before them.

I think about the U.S getting “Red Dawned” since I watched the movie when I was a kid. I think about it often. It seems more realistic to experience a foreign invasion than a zombie apocalypse. Like, what would my family and I do? Would we just die? Where do we go? It’s my Roman Empire 😅

@Lola yes it plays on my mind alot more now I have kids , I used to laugh and joke about it as a teen but now I actually don’t want to die it’s not funny 🫠🥴

Always since childhood being afraid I would not get pregnant cause there was a problem with me. At the end I found it so difficult to get pregnant. Two Failed IUI procedures, multiple treatments and then I got pregnant with first IVF procedure. Now I have my little 1 year old girl 😊😊. Last week I found out we are expecting second baby 🥰, conceived naturally this time. We really didn’t expect it

Geese!! Got chased down by one on a playground when I was 5, I see a geese now and my stomach drops, I will find a way to go around or simply wait for them to clear. Unfortunately my toddler now loves birds and runs right up to them which means I also have to run up and get him so the geese don't chase him and leave him traumatized too 🤣

@Claudia I struggle with this too! Apparently it’s called toilet anxiety and is very common
