We all have various types of phobias, which at times become too irrational. So, today let’s identify few I know about. Like there is Acousticophobia which is fear of noise. It is also a morbid fear of sounds including your voice. Then fear of heights, the one that I have too, is called Acrophobia. Anthophobia is fear of flowers, including any flower part, such as a petal or stem. Then this one could be fear of any school going kid-Arithmophobia, fear of numbers. Furthermore, there is also a fear of making decisions- Decidophobia. Dendrophobia is fear of trees. Ergophobia is fear of work and may be a combination of fears like fear of failing at assigned task, fear of speaking before groups or fear of socializing. Tachophobia is fear of speed. It’s also known as Fast Fea or Fast Movement Fear. Then my favorite, Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia, (just love the name!) is the fear of long words. So, that was all about the fears, I hope I have not instilled Phobophobia (fear of phobias) in you. Take care till next time. Chao!(Photo credits: Google)
