I recently encountered one of my worst fears, and I reacted pretty badly. The strange part is that I have been in more dangerous situations than that, and have kept a level head. However, in this rather absurd instance, I FREAKED OUT!!!!! It was shameful. The only reason was one detail---it involved a phobia of mine that I usually keep under wraps.

I was wondering, has this happened to anyone? Am I the only one (besides Howard, with his fear of cranes) who has a ridiculous fear, and how do you react when faced with it?

For all the details on my freakout (hehe), go to my website. The link to the story is below.
