        This…


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

        That seems scary..

            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.

                      awkward [awk-werd]

                      adjective
                      1. lacking skill or dexterity.
                      Synonyms: clumsy, inept; unskillful, unhandy, inexpert.
                      Antonyms: deft, adroit, skillful, dexterous; handy.
                      2. lacking grace or ease in movement: an awkward gesture; an awkward dancer.
                      Synonyms: uncoordinated, graceless, ungainly; gawky; maladroit; clumsy.
                      Antonyms: graceful.
                      3. lacking social graces or manners: a simple, awkward frontiersman.
                      Synonyms: gauche, unpolished, unrefined; blundering, oafish; ill-mannered, unmannerly, ill-bred.

                      4. not well planned or designed for easy or effective use: an awkward instrument; an awkward method.
                      Synonyms: unwieldy, cumbersome, unmanageable; inconvenient, difficult, troublesome.
                      5. requiring caution; somewhat hazardous: an awkward turn in the road.

                      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.

                                      not sure if it would classify as an actual phobia but i am genuinely afraid of spiders; it can be kind of cool as long as they're not moving tho. and it's weird cause i know that it's irrational (at least in my country where there are no poisonous ones) but still i just lose my mind when i see one lol.

                                          Vertigo, really bad for me. Mate talked me into going up the top of the Tokyo Tower, while holidaying in Japan. I didn't make it far from the elevator just the sight of the view over Tokyo froze me. I dry retched was a disaster had to be helped back into the elevator. It is a terrifying feeling.

                                            I don't know whether it is a phobia or not but whenever I see blood I feel dizzy. I have fainted a few times because of that, once I fainted by seeing my own blood when I got a nosebleed. I got it checked and the doctor said that it is a 'vasovagal syncope' and there is no treatment except that I will grow out of it eventually, till the time I must avoid the situations where I see blood.
