Depends on the turbulence. The one that it feels like you're just shaking like driving down a country road, don't care, the one where you all the sudden drop, you bet your ass.

Airplane death is never a worry to me. It's pretty peaceful with the amount of O2 they are going to pump into me and it's all over fairly quickly. Not afraid of turbulence.
Many airplane crashes are several minutes of terror prior to impact and no amount of O2 is going to help that. At least not for me.
Also, "air pockets" Wacky??? :D

Also some heights. Like, not top of some tower or bridge or something, but like legitimately dangerous places like scree slopes and cliffs and knife ridges. Last fall I felt myself freaking out on a scree slope and thought I might pass out and had to bear hug a tree with my arms and legs until it passed.

They're kinda intertwined especially with the anxious flyer. Pre flight jitters is anxiety. Tightening up during turbulence or landing could be a mixture of both fear and anxiety.

Right, but the framing of this conversation leads people to talk about their greatest sources of anxiety which become fears. This would be a pretty dull conversation about the small things that we all have anxiety about. Lib's expired food anxiety is a perfect example of this. I'm guessing most people wouldn't scarf down turkey from the fridge that has been in there for five months without a wayward thought. Crossing the street is something we all do but I'm sure most have some level of anxiety about it, same thing with driving a car, getting a haircut, staying in a high rise hotel, eating out, getting married, hiring a babysitter, etc etc etc.

My wife absolutely hates that I keep food beyond the date. Especially milk. The truth is, unless it says expiration date or something denoting it should not be used after a certain date, the date on it is more likely talking about this is the date we've determined this will taste the best or the date it has to be sold. But it is still usable afterwards in most cases. And they are largely not regulated, so a company determines their own dates. I get the turkey after a week thing though. And frozen stuffs. pretty much good forever, or until the freezer burn sets in.

In the most basic definition, fear is directly attributable to something that is happening whereas anxiety is what your mind is doing to you thinking about what could happen, be happening, etc...
It's like fear is your emotional and physical reactions when a spider is crawling on you. Anxiety is your emotional and physical reactions when thinking about spiders crawling on you.
My wife's family all have really debilitating anxiety. She takes medication to reduce hers, but I have had to learn the triggers of hers. Some days it is like a tightrope which is why I commented that people with anxiety give me anxiety. Constantly getting turned over wondering if what I'm doing is triggering her. The medication makes it much easier. I still rarely drive the vehicle if we are both in it though. It's just not worth it because she is white knuckle the entire time constantly trying to figure out ways that we will crash. Her father won't even ride in a vehicle if he isn't driving.

I get your viewpoint. Harvesting my first game animal as a teenager certainly altered my outlook on how food gets to your table. That being said, I don't think that many people come from the right place mentally to participate in the process, that includes both those that abstain/abhor it and those that participate solely for the conquest/ trophy aspect of it. The commercialization of it (i.e. the glamorization/ creation of the redneck rockstar) is one of the biggest contributors to how the process gets misconstrued on both sides of the spectrum.
I think what we are both dancing around here is how increased specialization in every day life has allowed people to lose touch with many of the processes necessary to maintain life and the sense of fulfillment that comes with carrying them out. There's an innate human need to do work necessary for survival, when you deny yourself this work, you open the door to let dissatisfaction with yourself and your actions run rampant. People express that feeling in a lot of different ways. :th_twocents:

Also, not anxiety, but all this throwing out food talk is giving me white hot rage.

How did the guy who eats anything get compared to the guy who only eats white meat chicken strips?

I think you may have that post confused, I was referencing my diet and GI issues while speaking to libliblibliblibliblib.

@Tobias I drove my family to the mountains a couple years ago and every second of the drive I was so crippled by the anxiety I was on the verge of tears.
i hate that too. it's coupled with my fear of heights i think

oh I hate heights. I hate them. I also hate the "oh you're afraid of heights lol" people when you tell them you're afraid of heights. heights is a perfectly reasonable fear. if I fall that's it. its over. public speaking you just feel awkward and go on living.Mrs Wacky drove us over this in Oregon and I thought she was going to have a heart attack. There's no road, you're driving on a crate and you can see all the way down. :ohno:

There used to be a bridge similar to that (grate/ crate, w/e) in KS. Not sure if it is still there. It was somewhere around Maple Hill, iirc.

There is a grating bridge over the kaw outside of Rossville. You can't even see through it when you're in the car #angles
Bridges don't scare me as much as a mountain road though. You're pretty well caged in on a good bridge.

OK hack on brother. Also internal parasites give alot of people anxiety but have you read about hookworm therapy?How did the guy who eats anything get compared to the guy who only eats white meat chicken strips?

You probably couldn't drive off of that bridge if you tried.IDK man. The other one we went over there was way worse. Super narrow and light rails. That's just the popular one I could find. It was a long ways down too.

No anxiety of heights for me, it's a very real pants shitting fear.

So I don't like needles, shots, the smell of the alcohol swab, all that. Sometimes I (used to) pass out and seize. Well one time at work I was watching a safety video that covered people passing out and seizing and it made me pass out.Yes. This one. I have passed out during shots.

Also gate lines at any sporting events where people aren't ready with their tickets thus slowing down the line.

Like, are you heights people afraid when it's an obviously safe scenario? Like, that glass floor skyscraper thing, is that scary?
yes but I use my brain to overcome my mind. when its IRL not safe like the escalator at the K to get to the upper deck I almost go bonkers every time.

I think not being afraid of heights is a genetic defect. Like how can you be 200 ft in the air and look over a ledge and just be sleepycat.jpg?definitely not normal. What about that dude who jumped from space to the earth?

It makes me feel funny in my pants. Like climbing the rope in gym classLots of things gives me that feeling. :)

i can't sit in the upper deck of stadiums unless i'm super pak'd. my brain is convinced that i'm about to fall off the whole goddamn stadium to my death.
Uhh, as a :kstategrad: IDK why that would ever be an issue :dunno:
