I must admit, I had a fear more irrational than all these. I really did not like to touch animal limbs or feet (lizard toe sucker pads and little paws of cats dogs mice) and pretty much freaked out. Which led me to my favourite ball python. HAHAH imagine that.
But of course I did get over it, kind of, at least. And in any case I have decided to enjoy having my instinctive fears, since they give me a kick in my boring life. I became an adrenaline junkie as a grew up, I love getting into precarious situations and heights (totally into extreme sports) and doing stupid things like in Neg's Urban Sports just for a dare. Yeah I'm pretty immature but I have my right to be for a while more. Still in my teenage years and schooling. So now facing such fears is just another 'kick' I get.
