I have had a quite a few psychotic episodes. They honestly aren’t that humiliating because people are usually surprisingly understanding that you’re not yourself.
My biggest fear is my Mom dying. I honestly can’t picture a world without her.
I’m not particularly too close with anyone. At least, that’s how I feel. So, dying alone once my mom finally passes on. She still healthy ish but she’s 70. No one in my family really bothers with me, i have friends but I always feel like a bother or you know, only needed when remembered.
Being homeless and alone, dying slowly in agony and ignominy while nobody cares. Just weeks or months of unending pain and sickness before I expire, because I’m not worth saving. A fear which is pretty likely to happen, by the way, since I’m in bad health and on the edge of insolvency. So that’s fun.
I know it may seem weird, but I fear the mechanisms of the deep unconscious.
I don’t think you will ever experience them unless you do certain drugs, have a specific seizure, near death experience, poisioning, or a sleep disorder event.
I honestly think that is the greatest fear, because it is unbound and it has no reason to be, it just is, pure, unadulterated, fear; there is simply, nothing like it, and any other fear sits small; it’s a fear that would kill you from shock, if, the brain wasn’t in such a weird state that you lose muscle control in each case either to protect your body or just as a side effect.
I fear, my brain activating pure fear mode, for no reason at all, just a glitch; because it has happened before, and no is not a panic attack.
I knew a guy who had a crazy wife (witch, casting spells/killing chickens) who yelled at him and three kids that all looked like circus sideshow attractions.
So yeah, being him is literally my biggest fear lol

Mine is going insane and not realizing it and being humiliated by it in front of people.

Failing to protect my family.

Dipping a carrot into ranch but it’s actually blue cheese

All I have is my pets and my mom.
4AM and I’m reading random men’s deepest fear 😇🤝😫 gyattt
To be abandoned by the people I love.
I can dream about many terrible things that I sleep properly, but if the dream is a friend I love, a family member abandoning me… I cannot sleep
Wasps and Alzheimer’s
building a loving family and having it taken away from me
Full isolation. I’ve been there before and I don’t ever want to be there again.
My wife and I met when we were 18, got married at 20, and are now 41.
We’ve lived a great life, with great careers, life in a great place, own a great home, and live a life that would make some jealous.
I’m afraid one day when we are old and grey, she’s going to tell me she regrets everything and never wanted to live this life.
Abandonment
dying alone, deep waters
not that I am inadequate, but that I am powerful beyond measure
Not truly living before I die.

Trapped in a bad marriage.
That I’m actually ugly and useless when I’m actually not…

Dying alone in a home with all of my mind gone.
Imagine shit that triggers trypophobia and now imagine it on your skin.
I’m afraid of that too.

Being condemned/not believed by my loved ones for something I literally didn’t do like a murder or something else controversial
Failing.
Getting a hooker who won’t let you blast a huge load on her face.
