Hey everyone.

I was just wondering what community question/debate I could ask and this was perfect. Feel free to share your phobias/fears and what they mean! If you don't have any or if you don't know, try googling and doing some research. Anyway, here are mine:

Scopophobia >>> (fear of people staring at you)

Eisoptrophobia and Spectrophobia >>> (fear of mirrors and what is in them)

Anthropophobia >>> (fear of people/society)

Autophobia >>> (fear of being alone/loneliness)

Agoraphobia >>>> (fear of open spaces and crowds)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reading my phobias back to myself is a wakeup call. I literally just have every form of social anxiety and of how I look :l

Anyway, what are yours? :)

I’m not really afraid of the dark. I’m just afraid of what’s lurking in the dark…

Also what people think of me and spiders… (mostly bugs. Hen I was younger I was terrified of flies)

Im not really scared of anything, but I am scared of fear. Like when I get scared of something or feel spooked I have panic attacks sometimes. Not because of the thing that scared me, by because of the fear itself. I hate the feeling.
