I just thought Baseball players didn't go to school. I don't mean to be rude, but what does that mean? |

Wait I get it.
You mean that college baseball doesn't have the fame that college football and college basketball has. And baseball players often getinto professional ranks without going through college.
That might be true but that is not always the case. I'm sure the Blasts can explain the case in point for us though.

Heh, funny they mention the fear of opening one's eyes (optophobia), I had a dream in which every time I opened my eyes, things were normal at first, but colors slowly pooled together into random ovals, which shrunk, leaving a white background. Hard to describe really, but try hard to imagine everything you saw looked like a stained glass window and you'll get an idea.
I have a fear of heights. I'm not afraid of going up to high places, but they make me shaky when I'm looking down. I also have a slight fear of something mentally/physically crippling happening to me, even temporarily, because I think that since it happens to others, it could happen to me at any moment. Just yesterday I pinched my finger in a split board trying to take apart a wooden crate. Refreshing adrenaline rush for a few hectic seconds. Luckily there was almost no damage, and I'm already back up and typing.
Mattis: Try reasoning out why you would ever be stuck in a body of water with a monster and why the world would ever turn upside down (which is scary to imagine, I agree).

I watched a program last night about people who were scared to speak. They had strange 'rules' about who could hear them speak. One boy never spoke in school, or things about school. He only spoke to one classmate, never at school. It is curable as he was put as captain in his school soccer team, and needed to speak to direct people. He organised a home football tournament, and was strong to speak immeadiatly, welcoming the guests. Totally strange.
The condition is called selective muteness.

I read that speaking infront of a group is fear #1 among the polled fears. Death was 3rd or 4th. Arund 300 people were polled that question was what scares you more than anything else?
