… if you wish to post this in your journal, it’s been requested that you title it “I’m afraid of __ out of 72 common fears”
If you get more than 30, I strongly recommend some counseling.
If you get more than 20, you’re paranoid.
If you get 10-20, you are normal.
If you get 10 or less, you’re fearless.
People who don’t have any are liars

I scored 10 but like 4 were related to my fear of heights so I guess that is not too bad. It means me and my shrink will have to talk about something else.

I guess I’m fearless! Being poor/unsuccessful is probably my greatest fear and I’m working to make sure that doesn’t happen!
