What is your weakness? For me, it's vomit. Give me pain, give me blood, or give me guts. I can take them all day. However, I'm a sympathy puker. Even more so when it's my kid. I crumble like a deck of cards.
 
Eyes. I’m pretty hardy otherwise, but eye injuries, infections, irritations, even just hearing about it makes my eyes burn and water.

I think I’m traumatized from a picture of a fish hook stuck in someone’s eye I saw when I was younger (can’t remember if it was a scout book or first aid book)

The sound of styrofoam squeaking. I can’t be in the same room if someone is messing with styrofoam. Get immediate goosebumps and start shaking when I hear it.
 
Artificial fragrances, especially but not only air “fresheners” (terribly deceptive name). Make me feel bad. Nauseous, irritated eyes and nose.

If you do a little reading about them you’ll probably also try and avoid them.

This. Plus mouth/teeth.

Just coming to post this. A styrofoam container rubbing together will completely incapacitate me. Like can literally drop me to the floor.
 
Cockroaches. Fucking cockroaches.
I was 12 or 13 living in Italy. I put on my "play pants" one Saturday. The kind with a hole in the knee. Felt something weird on my upper front leg. Shook my pants and something wiggled and a roach ran out of the hole on my knee cap and down my leg. #nightmarefuel
 
Drunk grandmas at concerts. Basically ruins the night for me to be around some drunk old lady screaming like a little girl. I’d rather go home.
