To start, I would like to thank everyone who took the time out of their day to take the survey. Also, as you can see the results of the survey had some common answers such as spiders and heights. Yet, there were some different answers that you did not see as much, like the fear of biting off your tongue and eating it. That’s the cool part about hearing people’s fears: there are some you would never even think of that some people fear on a daily basis. Once again, thank you to everyone who was willing to share their fears with me.
