Claustrophobia

This…

If you have a shiver looking at that picture (not disgust) than unconsciously you have Trypophobia.

I don't have Tryptophobia, but 2222's picture triggered an obsessive quality in me! Now I can't get it off of mind, and all I want to do is see images that trigger it! Damn, I am :crazy2:!

no clue of their names but I have a strong dislike and fear of being underground and of clowns. I have no clue why the underground thing since I am not really claustrophobic. But clowns make sense they are evil soul sucking beasts from the great beyond as I see them.

I guess I do not have any

I have a few of them…. They are as follows:

melissophobia - fear of bees... It only took getting stung by a bee once to acquire this fear

trypanophobia - fear of neeles... This one isn't so bad since my HIV diagnosis back in 2009

tomophobia - fear of surgery... This one is largely due to a car accident I had back in 2003 where the drugs that knock me out wore off, but the drugs that paralyze me did not. To this day, I still have recurring nightmares of waking up during surgery.

I don't think this really qualifies as a phobia, but awkwardness seems to have a REALLY bad effect on me. I cant even watch a video or read about an uncomfortable situation without closing the tab.

awkwardness, noun

So, after having listed what awkwardness is about, I guess your awkwardness qualifies as a phobia!

The only phobia I have I guess would be related to heights.
