Some explanations no one asked for but I'm writing them anyway Spiders: I once tried out a VR 'overcome your fears' thing with spiders (even though I wasn't scared of them), and the spiders jumping on me looked so real that I now developed actual fears for them. How ironic. Public speaking: The weird thing about this is that I get more nervous the better I know the people I'm speaking to. For example, I'm not scared at all talking to total strangers, but when I present something in front of my classmates I panic and forget what I was about to say. The ocean: I wasn't scared of the ocean at all until I read a book about someone drowning. It was the creepiest thing ever. Failure: I'm a perfectionist ok?! Losing a loved one: I think this one is self-explanatory. Darkness: It triggers that 'small space' feeling I'm terrified of. Small spaces: I have claustrophobia. I've had literal panic attacks just sitting in the car with all the windows closed. Yay!! Now you know some completely unnecessary facts about me that will probably never matter to you again!
