yes.

Pamy, I am thinking the play in the rain would have included having sex in the rain. I was going to say something about living in the Golden state and you having golden showers but I was advised against it.

That's a long list. I need to study it and get back to you. I'm interested to see how many TVCHers have a zemmiphobia, fear of the great mole rat. Huh? Maybe if I knew what it was, I would have that phobia.

1. Batophobia- Fear of heights or being close to high buildings.
2. Myrmecophobia- Fear of ants.
3. I didn't see my other one listed - fear of tunnels in which you can't see the other end, not claustrophobic though. I have to be able to see a way out at each end no matter where I am in the tunnel.

Lots of stuff I don't LIKE, but I think I only have one truly impairing phobia, and it's sort of like a fear of having my clean air to breathe be restricted. I can't lie close to my bf, without having to move out of his "exhale space", I can't have my head "under covers", I hate crowded buses for fear that everyone else has used all the normal air, and now I'm breathing everyone's CO2, I am also afraid of any situation where my breathing could be restricted. Hence the ones I found below:

Buried alive, being or cemeteries- Taphephobia or Taphophobia. - I don't mind cemeteries, but the thought of being buried alive is enough to raise my heartbeat.

Confined spaces- Claustrophobia. Don't mind a small space for a short time, but if I start thinking about the air, I go completely squirrely, and have to get off the bus or elevator.

Place: locked in an enclosed place- Cleithrophobia, Cleisiophobia, or Clithrophobia. - again, the place would have to be small enough that I'd run out of clean air.

Water- Hydrophobia. - HATE water. I can only be in a pool, but I hate open water. Hate the ferry ride, will never go surfing, or river rafting. Just watching those things on TV, my breathing will become conscious and laboured.
