Phobias 101

Sabado, Mayo 9, 2015





They said that love has many forms that identifying it can be as hard as walking around a room

filled with darkness. However, love is not the only emotion that has many kinds as fear has its

own varieties.

Among the 22 weirdest and, yes, unimaginable fears are listed below:

1. Venustraphobia

Have you ever felt scared whenever you see attractive woman passing down your way? Well,

beware as you might have the fear of beautiful woman.

2. Euphobia

Excellent! You have a fear for good news.

3. Anuptaphobia

It’s not just every Valentine’s Day that you felt scared and lonely as it’s actually now considered

a fear of being single.


4. Sciaphobia

You’re not a vampire, you’re not afraid of the sun; it’s just that you have a fear of shadows.

5. Selenophobia

You feel this fear every night when the moon is at its peak.

6. Deipnophobia

Because you have a fear for dinner parties, I know cordially invite you to a dinner party. My

house, 8pm sharp.

7. Sinistrophobia and Dextrophobia

While Sinistrophobia is the fear for anything or anyone left-sided, Dextrophobia on the other

hand is the fear for the right-sided. I wonder what will happen if you have both?

8. Philophobia

Are you afraid of falling in love and getting hurt? Maybe it’s not just a temporary feeling that

fades over time. Maybe it’s deeper and more threatening than you thought as Philophobia is the

fear of falling in love.

9. Chirophobia and Genuphobia

Have you ever felt fear whenever you see your hands and knees? Well, they now have a name

for it; Chirophobia is the fear of the hands while Genuphobia is the fear for the knees.

10. Allodoxaphobia

Trust me; you’ll never be a good leader if you have this fear of opinions.

11. Peladophobia

Run! Run for your life! The bald man is here.

12. Alliumphobia

Witches and other mythical creatures definitely have this as Alliumphobia is the fear of garlic.

13. Paraskavedekatriaphobia

There’s a reason why I put this on the number 13 and made this on a Friday night as

Paraskavedekatriaphobia is the fear of Friday the 13th.

14. Bibliophobia

Good thing I don’t have this one as Bibliophobia is the fear of books.

15. Coulrophobia

I may not have the Bibliophobia but I definitely, probably have the fear of clowns.

16. Ithyphallophobia

Unbelievable as it may but Ithyphallophobia is the fear of erect penis.

17. Acerophobia

Can’t eat citrus fruits? May be you have the fear of sourness.

18. Dutchphobia and Francophobia

Finally travelled around the world except places where Dutch and French people reside? Then I

think it’s time for you to see the psychologist as you might have the Dutchphobia or the fear of

Dutch people and their culture and Francophobia or the fear of French people and their culture.


19. Omphalophobia

Weirdly enough they now have the name for the fear of belly buttons.

 
20. Sesquipedalophobia

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. Feeling the

fear now? Good because you have the fear of long words.

21. Pogophobia

Don’t ever try to grow your beards when you have Pogophobia or the fear of, I said it, beards.

22. Panophobia and Phobophobia

What? Never had enough of fear that you have to have the fear of everything? (Panophobia) and

to cap it all up you need to fear Fear itself? (Phobophobia)
