Irrational fears and phobias

Anyone care to share a phobia they have? A few years ago I discovered one I didn't even know I had. I was snorkeling with a group off the coast of Catalina and having a blast. Then I saw a large growth of seaweed, very tall, dense and still rooted into the seafloor. I was still at least 50 feet away from it when I started to breathe faster and felt like I had to get away from it, even though I was nowhere near it. It's not like I thought there were sharks or anything, nor was I fearing for my life. I was just irrationally fearful of large clumps of seaweed underwater. Is there a name for that?

Anyway, that's my story. Do you have one?
