The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:10am On Jan 06, 2017
Ablutophobia


If you have ablutophobia then you had better go grab some deodorant because you are probably too scared to take a bath or clean yourself.

Ergophobia


In what is probably one of the most convenient phobias on this list ergophobia is the fear of work or the workplace environment. On a serious note however, psychologists believe it is a combination of various fears such as failing at assigned tasks, social anxiety, and public speaking.

Nomophobia


Short for no-mobile-phone phobia, this is the constant fear of not having service and according to researchers in the UK a whopping 50% of people have it. Third world…we apologize.

Philophobia


Although butterflies in the stomach are often associated with love, for someone with philophobia those butterflies are more like deadly scorpions, as they are petrified of falling in love. Unfortunately many people in this category end up living a life of solitude and fear of commitment

Somniphobia


Also known as hypnophobia, this is the abnormal fear of falling asleep. Oftentimes it can be the result of people feeling as though they are losing control and nightmares have been known to cause it as well.

Heliophobia


In a sort of modern day vampirism, heliophobia is actually defined as fear of the sun. Although it sounds harmless, it can actually be quite serious and lead to vitamin D deficiency as a result of staying indoors.

They only phobias I have are of girls who don't want sex on the first date, and girls who want fish on every date. What do we call that please? Yes, phobias for SKINNY GIRLS and girls who flash and ask for airtime when I call. I prefer you call or text then ask for the airtime.

Chaetophobia


Although some people with chaetophobia only fear loose or detached hair, others can be terrified by the hairs on their very own bodies

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:18am On Jan 06, 2017
Arachibutyrophobia


Although you’ve probably heard this one thrown around, the fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of your mouth is actually a made up phobia. It was first mentioned in the Peanuts comic strip and pop culture has run with it ever since.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:18am On Jan 06, 2017
Haphephobia


Whatever you do just make sure you don’t get too close to anyone with haphephobia…it’s the fear of being touched.

Oikophobia


Imagine being scared of your toaster…and your oven, and your refrigerator, and every other household appliance you own. For people with oikophobia, c’est la vie.

Coulrophobia


Generally found in children, coulrophobia is the fear of clowns. Some phobias are just so sad

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:21am On Jan 06, 2017
Aibohphobia


For those of you who don’t know, a palindrome is any word that is spelled the same both forwards and backwards. “Racecar” would be a good example. Aibohphobia is the fear of palindromes, which is intentionally a palindrome itself. This, however, is yet another made up phobia created by computer nerds in the early 80s.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:22am On Jan 06, 2017
Neophobia


Generally found in the elderly, neophobia is classified as the fear of new things and in its milder form consists of an unwillingness to part with old habits.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:23am On Jan 06, 2017
Hylophobia


It’s the irrational fear of wood, forests, and trees and as with most of the phobias on this list it is often the result of some long forgotten traumatic experience such as being beaten with a piece of wood or attacked in a forest.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:23am On Jan 06, 2017
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia


The longest town name in the world belongs to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch in the United Kingdom and if you have hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia you might want to steer clear of that place. Why? Because you are afraid of long words. Seriously though, this is a joke phobia that often gets thrown around on the internet. There are no recorded cases…as of yet.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:24am On Jan 06, 2017
Decidophobia


While some of you may just be indecisive and apathetic, there are people out there who are genuinely terrified of making decisions, they are known as decidophobes.

Gephyrophobia


If you have this phobia just make sure you don’t live close to the river because you would probably be too scared to cross any of its bridges. Some cities, however, provide services where they will actually drive your car across the bridge for you.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:26am On Jan 06, 2017
Trypophobia


If looking at the picture to the left gives you chills then you may be a trypophobic, or someone scared of clustered holes usually found on various biological organisms

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:27am On Jan 06, 2017
One of the stranger phobias on this list, chronophobia is the fear of time passing. Not surprisingly it is often found mostly in prison inmates or the elderly but it can also occur in people who experience a lot of stress and anxiety.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:28am On Jan 06, 2017
Phagophobia


This one could truly be hard to live with. Phagophobia is the fear of swallowing and in some cases it can actually lead to weight loss and malnutrition.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:34am On Jan 06, 2017
Omphalophobia


Is it an innie or an outie? If you suffer from omphalophobia you probably don’t know and you don’t care because belly buttons terrify you.

Re: The 25 Strangest Phobias You Could Have by RoyalBlak007: 11:35am On Jan 06, 2017
Phobophobia


It’s hard to believe but this is literally a phobia of phobias. If you managed to get through this list though, you’re probably in the clear on this one.
