Getting old - Both my parents who were always in good shape their whole lives have experienced serious health complications in the past few years and that scares me. I've also noticed that as I age, there are definitely limits to what I can do now. Other than the wisdom of experience, I really can't see any benefit to getting old and it scares me to death.
Deep water/drowning - I've never really been a strong swimmer and water deeper than above my shoulders scares the #### out of me. I can swim in a forward motion but anything involving treading water for more than 20 seconds and I'm in trouble.
My kids growing up in a messed up world - I'm sure this is not unique as every generation worries about their kids being ok but I just wonder if they will be able to adapt and thrive or end up struggling.
Nature/animals - I just don't feel super comfortable in places that aren't cities unless I'm with people who know how to handle themselves in those kind of places. Animals kind of freak me out too.
