What is a phobia? A phobia is the unrelenting fear of a situation, activity, or thing that causes one to want to avoid it. Phobias are largely underreported, probably because many phobia sufferers find ways to avoid the situations to which they are phobic to. Fears of midgets, haunted houses, helmets, pickles, and feet are just a few of the less common phobias and may be considered strange by some but can be just as debilitating as those phobias that are more common. Agoraphobia often coexists with panic disorder. Very few people literally go berserk in a phobic situation, but their reactions prevent them from accomplishing the things that they could normally accomplish. Types of phobia Agraphobia - Fear of sexual abuse. Androphobia ,Arrhenophobia ,Hominophobia - Fear of men. Atelophobia - Fear of imperfection. Athazagoraphobia - Fear of being forgotten or ignored or forgetting. Autophobia - Fear of being alone or of oneself. Philemaphobia ,Philematophobia - Fear of kissing. Philophobia - Fear of falling in love or being in love. Pocrescophobia ,Pocresophobia - Fear of gaining weight. Rhytiphobia - Fear of getting wrinkles. Soceraphobia - Fear of parents-in-law. Triskaidekaphobia - Fear of the number 13. Cyprianophobia ,Cypridophobia ,Cyprinophobia ,Cypriphobia - Fear of prostitutes or venereal disease. Dishabiliophobia - Fear of undressing in front of someone. Lockiophobia , Maieusiophobia - Fear of childbirth. Phronemophobia - Fear of thinking. Cacophobia - Fear of ugliness. Chiraptophobia ,Haphephobia ,Fear of being touched. Cibophobia - Fear of food. Katagelophobia - Fear of ridicule. Decidophobia - Fear of making decisions. Erotophobia - Fear of sexual love or sexual questions. Gerascophobia - Fear of growing old. Hypegiaphobia ,Hypengyophobia - Fear of responsibility. Hypertrichophobia - Fear of hair.

@Poster, are you a real therapist? I have a fear of the crack/gap between the platform station and the train, what is that called? |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by maedan(f): 7:43am On Nov 08, 2009 |
^^^Lol, is that for real or you're just making that up?? @ OP, I should have known there would be a phobia for parents-in-law . But fear of clocks, handwriting, even of thinking?? Some of these people need some whupping . Mine is fear of cockroaches. I get dizzy just at the sight of one. And if I even manage to kill one . . . . it gets me puking every time. Now that's a serious phobia to complain about. Fear of Number 13 ko, fear of Alphabeth W ni. |

Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by madlady(f): 7:57am On Nov 08, 2009 |
@maedan, Yes sadly it's for real, for years i avoided taking the train to work, station less than a 2min walk from home. ps, i live at number 13, and that's for real. |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by maedan(f): 8:04am On Nov 08, 2009 |
@madlady, woooww!! Then that's a new one they probably haven't named yet. But it's a realistic fear, esp when there's even a warning all the time to "Mind the gap". I'm afraid of trains too but for a very different reason - too ridiculous to mention. Take heart, dear, I'm sure you're not alone . @pureminded Que?? Never heard of fear of some insects? I'm flipping serious about the cockroaches phobia. Just thinking about one, gets me heaving. Abeg dress make the therapist do his thing . |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by madlady(f): 8:07am On Nov 08, 2009 |
@meadan, have you seen how far the train can be sometimes from the platform. I DE FEAR HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO |

Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by maedan(f): 8:11am On Nov 08, 2009 |
@madlady, yes ooo, me self, I always extra-stretch my leg not to miss the solid ground, lol. I'm beginning to totally feel your point of view!! |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by madlady(f): 8:15am On Nov 08, 2009 |
@meadan Yessssss the thought of it even now, i feel i should JUMP onto the train |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by pureminded: 8:17am On Nov 08, 2009 |
maedan:Yeah Mine is Traveling, I dont like moving from place to place at allllllll , I fear accident like |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by maedan(f): 8:22am On Nov 08, 2009 |
@ madlady ROTFLMAOooohhh. . . !! In fact, nothing but an Olympic-style flying leap will do!! Both unto the train and off!! My sista, I don't form when it comes to that o! People look at me funny but I'm too relieved that I made it over that dreaded gap. In fact, you just made me aware of a phobia I didn't even know I had!! This train-gap thing sef, I'm sure therapist can find a name for it . @ pureminded. . . . this might be hard to believe, but I totally feel you about the travelling!! I can stay put in one location for ages because I just dread getting on the road - or in this case, the air. Hmmn, looks like we all have some fears in common!! |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by pureminded: 8:31am On Nov 08, 2009 |
Exactly maedan, I dont usually go out if the event is not extremely important excluding work O , M either watching film on my laptop or facebooking |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by maedan(f): 8:37am On Nov 08, 2009 |
AAH!! @ pureminded, your case is not a phobia but an anti-social condition . I thought you meant travelling long distances!! I used to stay at school during the hols and only went home once or twice a year when I was in Uni, just to avoid the trips!! But to not leave the house at all at all . Bye bye ! |
Re: Phobia!what Do You Fear Or Dread Most? by pureminded: 8:39am On Nov 08, 2009 |
No O , Both long and short distance , trust me, That's me sha |
