Your greatest fear

Tornados. I have recurring nightmares about them. I'm convinced they're the closest thing we'll ever see in real life to an eldritch horror.

Follow-up would be needles. I've hated shots since I was a kid and never outgrew it. There's been a few times during vaccines/blood draws/etc. where technicians asks me if I'm ok because they notice I'm tense. I always squeak out "I'm fine," while screaming in my head "YOU'RE LITERALLY STABBING ME RIGHT NOW OF COURSE I'M NOT OK!!!!"
 
Seconding Tornadoes. They scare the absolute snot out of me, and where I live they happen all too much (like 7-8 times near my place a year).

But also... Passwords... OKAY LET ME EXPLAIN. I have a big fear of losing/misplacing information, which I've researched and learned is a common subsect of ocd, which would explain it for me, and I'm naturally a messy person so I get mild scares from it A LOT. Eventually it evolved into a special fear of Passwords in particular, and logging into and checking accounts used to be really anxiety inducing for me, which is why I didn't interact much anywhere that required an account (which is like 90% of the internet) until recently. I've since gotten over it, but it still manifests whenever I mistype a Password or something similar, since I just have to go "Well, this is the Password I know I'm just gonna type it in a again. Very. Freaking. Slowly..."
 
Losing loved ones, #1 biggest fear for sure. Reaching a certain point of happiness and never being able to beat or match it is also something I find myself worrying myself sick about. The concept of becoming an empty husk or shell of who you once were is also horrifying.
On a more lighthearted note: house centipedes!!
