Other than normal stuff like home invasions, because that's mundane, I have to admit that I am horrified by aliens. Only the typical 'greys' with the teardrop heads and big eyes do it to me -- I don't even believe that they exist, and yet every time I see a picture or video of one it fills me with dread. I have no idea why, so it must be some kind of subconscious reaction to the way they are portrayed that does it for me.

Heights. When I'm near the edge of any 20+ ft drop I get intense feelings of being top-heavy and off balance, as if accidentally stumbling off and falling is unavoidable. I have recurring nightmares involving being on the top of skyscrapers, having to cross thin walkways with no sort of railing; those are just the worst.

Open ocean. Really freaks me the fuck out. Im fine on a boat but being IN the water is a whole different story.
