If you wish to post this in your journal, it's been requested that you title it "I'm Afraid of _ Out of 72 Common Fears". Oap, sorry.
If you get more than 30, I strongly recommend some counseling
If you get more than 20, you’re paranoid.
If you get 10-20, you are normal.
If you get 10 or less, you’re fearless.
People who don’t have any are liars.
So yeah. I'm...fearless. I do admit that not a lot of things bother me - least the ones in the common fear. What really is the way to nab me over is with guilt. (And not guilt tripping me for like, not drawing you as a fingerpuppet, but legit guilt, like when I question the amount of money it costs my parents for me to go to college.)
