You know, I've been put under once when I got my wisdom teeth out. I remember them giving me the shots in the IV, I think one was either valium or morphine. They told me to count backwards from 100. I got to 97, then watched the clock on the wall melt, and it felt like I fainted. Next thing, I woke up. Groggy and confused. It felt like I was being born. I had no recollection of ANYTHING (kind of like amnesia), but that all came back after a few minutes. Wasn't bad, actually.

Get over the Baby thing Brother...You just got married! If you are like the 87% or newly weds out there, babies are coming!
I suppose you van psyche yourself up by tricking yourself into thinking you actualy enjoy your fear. Put your game face on and take yourself out of your shoes and into someone elses. Look that **** in the eye and make a game out of it. Bottom line, picture the absolute worst that can happen and learn to accept it. From that very point, anything better than the worst is easy to deal with. Two Cents!

Not trying to sound like a bada$$ and not saying a situation never pops up that I may become a little scared while dealing with it, but to be honest I can't think of something that terrifies me. And hopefully things will stay that way LOL

I'm not so scared of wild animals. Except timberwolves. Some nights when I get home, the long walk from the garage to the house in near pitch black is a little nerve-racking. But I live out in the country.
Once I walked out to my car with the girlfriend and kid. I was parked in front of my garage, with the garage door wide open. We are almost to the car, and she says "Pete, look at the kitty!" It was a cat alright. A rather large bobcat was in my garage, batting at his reflection in a mirror, about 10 feet from us, but we startled him. I stood between the cat and my girlfriend/kid until they were in the car, then I carefully got in the car. I was mostly scared of what a cornered animal would do.

Spiders. Started as a kid after watching "Curse of the black widow", then my Grandmother would squish Black Widows with her palm (one tough Grandma) which really freaked me out. as a young adult I did crawl-under insulation for PG&E ZIP program in Chico, CA. We'd have to use folding shovels to dig trenches under floor joists, lay on our back and pull ourselves up to each section of floor to insulate. One time, I reached up, pulled myself to the next section and was nose to nose with a huge black widow. I pretty much freaked as I was somewhat trapped with the floor joist against my chest. My work partner was a little guy and he scrambled to me and drug me out by the leg. I quit that job that day.
Always been terrified of the bastards after that. Was bitten by a brown recluse some years later and had a horrible wound from that. Me and spiders don't get along. |

I routinely kill brown recluses with my hand. They're flimsy, kill easy. I don't do that with Black Widows though. I use a stick or whatever is handy. Never been scared for spiders or snakes. While it will make many people cringe, I've often considered having a tarantula as a pet, and letting it run free in the house. However, my wife would shoot me, right after she shot the spider!
