phobia

[Phobia] - A persistent, abnormal, and irrational fear of a specific thing or situation that compels one to avoid it, despite the awareness and reassurance that it is not dangerous.

For me, phobia is more like dislike.. I don't fear.. itz more to sumtin I really hate and try to avoid as much as I can.. I can still do it, but I will avoid if I could cos I juz don't like it..

These are the few phobia I have:

Claustrophobia - Fear of confined spaces

I don't like confined spaces..
I cant breathe and need to get out asap. imagine.. 12 hours flight to states, I didn't go to the labratory even once.
I don't like lifts either. Always have phobia of being stuck in the lift in that confined space. That is why i stay on the 2nd flr.. get it?

Coulrophobia - Fear of clowns.

I don't like clowns.. it is creepy and disguised. Making people laugh by doing stupid thing is NOT funny.

Entomophobia - Fear of insects.

I am ok with most of the bugs but no cockroaches...no no no... NOOOO....they r gross, disgusting the more u try to get away from them the more they come towards you.. and they FLY!

Ornithophobia - Fear of birds.

i don't like 'em. Period. Especially fat big birds!

Phengophobia- Fear of daylight or sunshine.

hee... cos i not a morning person... so i dont like the sun in the weekday mornings.. :P But strangely, I wake up so early in the weekends!

Trypanophobia- Fear of injections.

I hate injection so much.. I love seafood, esp half cooked cockles but I refuse to take the hepatitis shots... :P I took till the 2nd stage shots but it was so painful i never went for the last shot.. damn.. So now i need to retake 'em... All over again!

Anyway there is this whole list of phobia... click!
I wonder who is so free to come up with such thing? And do they xtually get paid for this?

Oh well, there r people out there, like me, who reads through the whole list :P
