Fears.
12 years ago
It is not the darkness we should fear but the beings that corrupt and ruin from within.
A confession.
I am Terrified of Bees and Wasps well pretty much anything that flies and possibly stings. I don't know how or why it started but I've been terrified since I was little.
It used to be much worse than it is now, like I used to freeze up shrink down and cry if I saw one close and I'd run away as if all the evil in the world was snapping at my heals and I avoided going outside during the Day because of it. If a wasp got into the house I would jump and flee to the bathroom and refuse to leave until mom came home or found where it landed and killed it. I couldn't go outside alone nor could I go down the stairs without someone there to keep the bees and wasps away.
Now I just back up as far as I can to get away all the while keeping my gaze locked onto it. Once it's out of the way I practically jump down the flights of stairs to get to where ever Im going down stairs or I run to the door and try to quickly unlock it and get inside before the bee or wasp can follow. I still hide if there is a wasp in the house and refuse to leave my hiding place until it is gone.
I know I shouldn't be afraid of them but I can't help it I just can't stand them being within 10ft of me at any time. Its not that Im afraid to be stung really I just hate bees and wasps well bugs in general.
Bah this is one reason I really hate spring and summer. Its Bee and Wasp season again.... * Curls up in a dark corner*

Being afraid of bees and wasps is not completely irrational either: quite a few people are allergic, and even if you're not the venom from a sting can hurt. :/
While it is true that they're small, it's not true that they're harmless.
I understand why you would be afraid of them, and I don't think it's a bad thing - especially since you are trying to get it under control.
