I do have a real non-irrational fear, small places. To combat it I co spelunking every year and crawl through caves that have only 12-18 inches of clerence. ( Talk about hyperventilating!)

My irrational fear - pansies. Yes, the flower. I think the movie Alice and Wonderland had something to do with it - always thought that the pansies were actually a crazy little face...
Clowns.
And People who wear fanny packs and/or socks with sandles.
Being late
Snakes
Bugs
small spaces
and my largest but most embarassing one ever is of a certain movie monster creature
mine is reeeeeeally weird i think. mine is windows. at night.

NOT irrational if you grew up where I did Nugget! Crack house on teh corner, hooker across the street, someone breaking into the house next door while I was home alone, a cop (BIG butch lesbian) I ran into at a bar KNOWING my address from having chased someone through my yard before...... need I go on?
Clowns. They scare the **** out of me with their happy faces. *shudders*
Falling through those metal doors on the sidewalks here in NYC!!
Squirrels! Especially when there are tons of them in the quad in the dead of winter all sitting deathly still in the trees and gnawing on nuts. The sound is very creepy and their little eyes watching you. (shivers) The snow makes it sound even odder, and you just expect them to come scampering down the trees to attack your jugular.
Closed or abandoned amusement parks.
I'm also afraid of ants.
Because there's never just one ant.
There are always thousands.
I also am scared of Porcelin dolls. They're scary. Also:
Striped curtains
Clown masks
Clowns
Lightbulbs with these little colored things in the middle
Open closets

I used to be terrified of heights but somehow I conquered that fear.
