Phobias are fears (obviously) and can become one that is a part of the person. A fear can become from birth, or it can become from some random point of life. agoraphobia is a fear of social activity. Sometimes it's so bad that the people suffering stay inside all their lives unless they need to get something. These people miss out on a lot of things and never really get to do things like normal people can spider-phobia is a fear that paralyzes you from even thinking of a spider, you won't even be able to move because your scared of a spider if you have it claustrophobia is a fear of tight spaces! but sometimes it doesn't just have to be a fear, it can actually be a feeling of the walls closing in on you so as you see, a phobia isn't just someone over-reacting. But of a person really scared of it. you can tell if someone has a phobia when they get scared unreasonably for something that normally isn't feared the best thing to do is suggest help if it gets worse! but on other sides! it might be good phobias too! because if someone has a phobia of dirt! then you will see clean houses thanks for reading this brought to you by Shad, the possibly most informative guy and not a dork or a geek please comment and tell me what you think of this thread
I think you forgot the name for fear of spiders.. It's arachnophobia.. But good job! Phobias can be debilitating to a person though, which is really sad..
Its amazing how i have no phobias whatsoever. I'm fearless. I'm a rebel. Also, good work with the thread.
Thanks, it's all I could do to focus on this game and not my room, although I see it closing in on me 0.0
