Being mugged by a ghost with a gun while I am forced to do a 16 hour shift at mcdonalds

This would be the ultimate act of no control over your situation

Neither. I'm not exactly sure why I'm scared of them.

Slipping into a state of derealization and dissociation that I never escape, rotting away in an existence that I am incapable to taking agency in.

Also hornets.

I used to, ironically, be really scared of the undead. I'm not joking. I used to have a reoccurring nightmare as a child about the dead rising up to grab me and drag me under the earth. I think it had to do with the Dead Hand and Redeads from Ocarina of Time.

You can probably guess that I've long since overcome that fear. I am a jumpy person though so shit kinda spooks me all the time. My reflexes are too hard wired for their own good.

When I was a kid I regularly had zombie apocalypse dreams. Just dreams of the world getting destroyed and my family being killed with me being powerless to stop it.

Then I got gud at Left 4 Dead and they went away. Thank you, GabeN.

The thought of having to submerge or walk through muddy/obscured water. I fear not being able to see what's under, and even if there's no chance for anything harmful to be there, my brain will probably make me think or feel there is.

Also wasps.

People touching my wrists or ankles.

When I was younger my parents watched crime programs and in one of them, a home invasion lead to the victim having their tendons cut in their wrists and ankles so they couldn't escape.

damn same here with the ankles but because of that dumbass movie House of Wax with the ankle scissor scene.

the worst has got to be mossy rocks and seaweed in lakes, that shit gives me the chills just thinking about it and ive no idea why

but sunken ships that are barely visible from the surface are as equally fascinating and terrifying

Imagine you're 10m underwater, you start drowning, sinking, you are almost passed out and you are still sinking, it's getting dark, not because you're passing out but because that's how the ocean is, you cannot breathe, you finally pass out

Speaking of drowning, i had a close call with drowning in an indoor swimming pool
They had a big whirlpool roundabout setup, and i was too short to stand on the ground and i almost drowned but i could free myself with some of my last power (luckily I hadn't swallowed water yet)

Waking up to a Mushroom cloud in the distance, a nuclear sunrise. With the knowledge that all my electronics no longer work, and I will slowly starve to death.

for me it's my phone buzzing and the thought that when i check it it could realistically be a government alert saying that a nuclear weapon is inbound to my area and will arrive in 5 minutes or whatever. i dont really have a nearby shelter so i guess i would just pray that it was a false alarm like when this happened, then maybe rattle out a post somewhere telling my family and friends that i love and will miss them before hunkering down and waiting. i dont know what i would do at that point.

Everyone has like all these deep and insightful fears, all I have is a fear of wasps and hornets, heights, and that one specific clicking noise you associate with electricity

I once had a short dream where i saw a huge meteor coming down in the sky and i despaired at the fact that i would die soon

Rotting. Slowly losing everything you are and could be as your mental and physical functions decline into nothing. The fact that this is what happens to everyone eventually doesn't help.

Yeah, but that’s just like being asleep without dreaming. It isn’t scary. It’s peace. The terror and agony most people will probably experience while dying is the scary part.

I'm afraid of ants. Not physically, but more like the concept of ants and other social insects. Meat machines, mockery of life. A colony is a complex artificial intelligence that uses ants in place of transistors.

I constantly fear for our species as a whole, more specifically how humanity will just continue to infight until we reach a resource crisis and drop off into extinction before getting to experience what space has to offer us.
