SFC Joseph James — Wed, 23 Sep 2015 12:27:09 -0400

Ok so I have very few fears but if a large spider crosses my path or lands on me....heart attack! So what makes you "Scream into the Night?"

I'm not sure it is so much of fear as it is irrational Hate....

But Clowns. I hate them. I don't get paralyzed with fear, or run away, or hide, but they anger me. I see a clown and I want to punch it in the mouth.

Had a clown get in my face at a haunted house and I just got angry "I swear to God I will punch you"...

Nothing. I was standing less than 100 yds from 2 107mm rockets that landed on Bagram and didn't even flinch - that's when I knew I had no fear whatsoever. I'm not afraid to die - I know where I'm going and so does everyone who knows me.

Spiders freak me the hell out, but I haven't dealt well with deep water since watching Jaws.

Also heights. I'll jump out of an airplane in a moment, but get me on a ladder or next to a ledge and I'm an anxious wreck.

I can't stand anything with too many legs! No creature needs more than six legs, in my humble opinion. I'm starting to get used to spiders, thanks to the abundance of hours I've spent organizing connexes and policing brass at the range. Centipedes are another matter.

My biggest fear is that of the flying yellow and black bunch and their relatives. Bees, wasps, hornets, hell I even try to stay away from honeybees when I see them. But if they're obviously harmful, again, wasps or hornets, you'll see me bolt in the other direction if I even think it's close to me.

Being buried alive in a shallow box! Since my surgery and recovery from stage IV neck cancer in 2005-06 I've become claustrophobic. Hated being on a ventilator as it seemed I couldn't get enough air despite O2 saturation readings. Having my head locked into position for radiation treatments freaked me out. Even watching television shows depicting people in confined spaces makes me edgy. Can't do MRI/CTs without meds. However, this helps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ow0lr63y4Mw.

I can't think of anything. I don't really fear things like spiders, I just dislike them and if they aren't in a web doing natures job of clearing other pests, they are dead.
