It is not really a fear, but I can't stand looking up at high things or buildings. Looking down is no problem, but looking up...
And I can't see live blood. I have no problem with TV or games, but real pictures of it or people kinda freak me out.

Everything else going wrong in my head is either clinical cynicism, ADHD, depression, or everything at once.

I fear nearly all the things you guys are terrified of, but not to the extreme.

Jack of all fear, if that makes sense to you.

Atelophobia, even though I'm a constant source of disappointment.

Fear of self-betrayal? Fear of breaking? I don't know if there is a proper name for it, but I've seen people break. Colleagues due to stress, close mates in pain at the hospital,... Incredibly strong and dependable people, fanatics even. Shattered my worldview more than once.
Imagine betraying your closest friends, your beliefs, yourself. I am scared of that. You can tell before they say anything. The look in their eyes changes. Painkillers can only do so much either. It's a bitch.
And every time I see someone like that, I ask myself, can I really say I am stronger? Does strength even matter? Won't there be a limit to my willpower? Won't there be a point where I let go? Spirits only get you so far.

I fear the sun. It's called being a vampire.
Aah this one is pretty direct....a chuuni vampire is afraid of the sun
Thalassophobia.
I'm especially afraid of drowning.
This one and acrophobia seema common in the thread
I think IRL blood is mine.
You are a dragon....i don't believe they have fear aside from dragon slayers hehe
Atelophobia, even though I'm a constant source of disappointment.
This is pretty common on a OCD person

All my fears are rational. :blob_shade:

Arachnaphobia.

I have a fear of the dark that isn't the dark itself. My fear is the loss of my eye sight.

I have fear of wiggly thing, I guess my ancestor escaped getting snek. Hoho just doing some job until a literal big ass centipede come crawling to me and it was so fast, got killed by others thankfully. Then when fishing, I had to hook a live worm... I feel so bad.

Now thinking of wyrm, a dragon with no leg, no wings just floating up high in the sky freely, please just seeing them shudders me temporarily in disgust regardless if they are majestic, beautiful and or awesome shiny.

athazagoraphobia

Not in the extreme level(maybe), but Just the thought of being forgotten would get me contemplating for hours...

Too many minor ones to list. Major ones are the ironic combination of fear of failure and fear of success causing a bit of paralysis at times (not a true fear of success, really, just a fear of runaway success that can never be repeated ... or failure during my lifetime becoming success only after I pass on or suffer some kind of debilitating injury, like the brain infection which ultimately killed brilliant Australian writer Randall Garrett, so I cannot appreciate/benefit from it).
