This just randomly came to mind. I thought I would post some random and strange phobias that I've heard of.
Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia- Fear of long words.
Ambulophobia- Fear of walking.
Anthrophobia- Fear of flowers.
Apeirophobia- Fear of infinity.
Arachibutyrophobia- Fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth. (Who thought of these?)
Barophobia- Fear of gravity.
Cacomorphobia- Fear of fat people. (How sad...)
Cathisophobia- Fear of sitting.
Chromophobia- Fear of colors.
Cibophobia- Fear of food. (Is that even possible?)
Deipnophobia- Fear of dining and dinner conversations.
Dextrophobia- Fear of objects on the right side of the body.
Domatophobia- Fear of being in a house.
Ecophobia- Fear of home.
Eisoptrophobia- Fear of mirrors. Fear of looking into mirrors.
Eurotophobia- Fear of the color red; fear of blushing.
Gallophobia8- Fear of France or the French.
Geumophobia- Fear of tastes or flavors.
Levophobia- Fear of objects on the left side of the body.
Logophobia- Fear of words.
Melophobia- Fear of music. (I'd be sad if I had this. Music is a major part of my life.)
Pantophobia- Fear of everything. (That's it!)
Pediaphobia- Fear of children. (The poor kids...)
Potophobia- Fear of alcohol or alcoholic beverages. (If only everyone had this fear...)
Russophobia- Fear of Russians.
Scholionophobia- Fear of school. (A lot of my friends would want to claim this phobia.)
Sinophobia- Fear of Chinese.
Siderophobia- Fear of stars. (But they're so pretty...)
Technophobia- Fear of arts and crafts. Fear of technology.
Trichophobia- Fear of hair.
Vestiophobia- Fear of clothing. (Yikes...)
Xanthophobia- Fear of the color yellow or the word yellow.
Zelophobia- Fear of jealousy.
Some of those are pretty insane, huh?

That first one on the list is my favorite. You wouldn't ever be able to tell anyone what it was lol.
I think I have a telephone phobia. I can't stand talking on them.

Oh, I don't like talking on the phone either.
My dad jsut bought me a cell because he got tired of not being able to get a hold of me when I was at school or at rehearsal. So he bought me one on the spur of the phone. The only thing I really like about it is that it has a camera. And that's all I've used it for so far. Is taking pics. I jsut don't like talking on the phone. And I don't like Text messaging either. But yeah, I really don't like talking on the phone. I find it extremely irritating. It's extremely rare for me to talk to my friends on the phone. Only if it's important. Usually, I jsut like to use the computer. But once in a while, I have to call them.
I don't think I can even begin to pronounce the first one. It's one of my favs though. However, I think the peanut butter one is just hilarious. Who has that fear?

I hardly ever use my cell phone except to call HR when I am out -- but I like having it just in case I had a problem. JJ -- send along some of those pics -- now that you have a camera phone I expect to see more of
you and Scout !
I do not know what that phobia is called a_mario -- but I would imagine a lot of people have that one ! I sure
do when it is my own.

I think I actually used to know the name for that. My sister faints anytime she sees blood whether it's hers or someone elses.

According to Google :)
Hemophobia or Hemaphobia or Hematophobia- Fear of blood.
I do not mind the sight of blood in a controlled situation, my cousin is a vet and cares for my animals -- I always
stay with them during surgery.
