There is no real phobia name for this one; but elevators. No I'm not claustrophobic. It's more like I'm afraid of being locked in places. So maybe I'm not afraid of elevators, maybe I'm Cleithrophobia. But then again I'm also afraid that I'm gonna get crushed by the elevator door so...
Vehophobia (this phobia has caused me to sometimes act like a backseat driver at times)
I also have a fear of the CN Tower in Toronto. No, i have never have been to the CN Tower before, but i know what it's like outside. It is scary. So if any of you have a fear of the CN Tower, you may want to steer clear of going to the top of it when you visit Toronto.
I used to be quite scared of dogs.
Then we adopted an 80 pound husky.
Needless to say, I'm not scared of dogs anymore.

I was the same way actually. I was afraid of big/medium-sized dogs (small ones I was fine with), then we got a lab dalmatian mix and she was just the sweetest.
@zanhar1 (unless zanhar3301 took over the account) See, I was always better with big dogs than small dogs. Two of my friends both had Chihuahuas that I was scared to death of. But once I had to learn to handle a huge, hyper-active dog that could knock me over and pinned me down, I realised that little tiny Chihuahuas weren't gonna do poop and I've ben fine with dogs ever since. XD
Actually dis is zanharQ. Yeah I get that, the reason I was okay with the small ones is because my grandma had a Yorkie since before I was born. I grew up with that adorable little thing. But yeah, how's a chihuahua gonna take down a big human lol? Dogs are just wonderful. <3 Especially big dogs that think they are small enough to be lap dogs.
Well I do consider myself anti-social, and most of the time just feel uncomfortable in public. I always got the feeling someone was watching me and judging my every move. But I'm not afraid of going outside or afraid to interact with people. I'm just abit awkward.
I have a fear of crabs, which kind of stretches to crayfish as well, since they also freak me out. It's pretty irrational. I don't even touch the ground underwater, due to it. In fact, I just try and avoid swimming in the sea, unless I have shoes on, or whatever. Even the thought of them makes me cringe.

Supposedly it's called kabourophobia, though that's only for crabs... not sure about crays.
