I'm writing a research paper on phobias but, I was told to pick only one. I'm curious to hear all your phobias!

I have

Agoraphobia, where you are scared of being in places with no escape or that you leave home to get to

Scopophobia, fear of irrational holes like on skin, walls, etc.

Oh also acrophobia- the fear of heights. I can’t even go on like, a bunk bed without crying

so i don't want to say i "have" these phobias because please keep in mind that phobias are classified as anxiety disorders, and phobias and fears are not the same thing, but im pretty sure i have atychiphobia (failure) and/or venephobia (veins)

Coulrophobia (fear of clowns)

Automatonophobia (fear of human-like figures)

Eisoptrophobia (fear of mirrors)

Fanaphobia (fear of ceiling fans)

Fun story of how I developed coulrophobia, when I was little my dad would do this creepy clown laugh and it scared the living crap out of me and he would keep doing it even though he knew I was terrified. thumbsup

TW Trypanophobia

I Have Terrible Trypanophobia, A.K.A. I'm EXTREMELY Scared Of Needles.

Don't Worry, I Still Get My Vaccines, But The Thought Of Something Stabbing Into My Arm And Injecting Me With Something Terrifies Me To The Point Of Me Not Being Able To Get Shots Without Crying.
