Haphephobia

Haphephobia is rare phobia. It is a fear of touchings or being touched.

Haphephobe feels instance pain similar to the pain of burn when somebody touches him or her. Touchings provoke a panic of haphephobe. Sometimes the panic is accompained with sickness or faint.
Physical abuse endured at the childhood could be the cause of the phobia. The accident may be happened years and years ago so the man cannot even remember it. Then, the phobia appeared as the result of that accident. Haphephobe might seem to other people rude and squeamish, because he or she strongly avoids hugs, handshakes and any kind of physical contact. Such manners are unpleasant for other people, they can take offence at haphephobe.

Nyctophobia

Nyctophobia is an irrational dread of darkness.
According to statistics, about 10% of population of our planet is subjected to darkness fear.
There are several reasons why nyctophpbia might be caused.
One of them is our own imagination, because it exists only in our minds.
Surely, night and darkness can constitute a menace for human, especially when you are in remoted area from civilization, where is no lights. In that case it is normal to fear
Another reason is anxious disorder.
The other reason is genetics. If the parents are nyctophoes
The possibility of devolution of the phobia forms 80%.

Acrophobia

Everyone has his or her own point of view about levels of height. Some people like to enjoy the view from the highest skyscrapers, while others feel themselves comfortable when there is no abyss in front of them. But there are also people who start to panic and feel paralyzing fear standing on high place.
  Acrophobia is fearing of height.
Acrophobe is a person who feels sickness and dizziness standing aloft.Of course, it is natural reaction of everyone  to the loftiness. But acrophobe would feel it even if there is no risk to fall down.
Acrophobe tries to avoid balcony, housetop or high towers and absolutely dislikes travel by plane
The reasons of this phobia can be various. It can be caused by genetics, by failed experience at the childhood (falling down from high place), upbringing or something else.

Claustrophobia

Today, I want to talk about claustrophobia. It is also considered a wide-spreaded social phobia.

Claustrophobia is a dread of close or narrow spaces.
People who have such phobia try not to be in a small room or cabin. They prefer to leave a door opened or try to stand closer to the exit.
They strongly avoid crowded places. For instance, such people start to panic in case they are locked in room or cabs by accident. That is why they would better go up stairs than using a lift.
As you see, they don't use car, bus, plain, train and avoid to be in the cellars, tunnels, caves, lifts and etc.

Have you ever been locked in a small room? 
Did you panic or not?

Glossophobia

Now I am going to talk about wide-spreaded phobia among people. It is glossophobia. As I mentioned before, glossophobia is a dread of public performance or speaking.
One of them is glossophobia. As I meantioned before, glossophobia is a dread of public performance or speaking. A person feels frequent palpitation,  excessively sweats,  quivers and his or her vocal chords are squeezed before or during the public speech.

Glossophobia can be caused by different reasons. They are the most common ones:
1. Dread of being castaway of society.  "What if they dislike me and my performance" or "what if I will make a mistake and it will be awful", you are wortied by such kind of thoughts.
2. Self-undervaluation. Low self-rating is also important reason of causing the glossophobia.
3. A bad experience at the childhood, that you still remember.
4. Oversensetivity to criticisms and impressionability to critic of surrounded people

According to psychologists' research, about 95% of people feel a fear of performance

Are you good at public speaking? 
How was your first experience? Can you remember it?

Generally about phobia

Hello, my friends!

Have ever thought what phobia is? How much information do you have about phobia?
And, what is the difference between phobia and fear?
Phobia is an insurmountable dread of some objects or situations.
While a fear is an axiety from threaten dangerous things.

You can feel a fear towards to the things that  can constitute a real menace for your life, because of your self-preservation sense. While phobia may be caused by not so harmful things, for instance, public speakig (glossophobia); fearing of height (acrophobia); fearing of closed spaces (claustrophobia) and etc. It staggers belief, but there are more than 400 types of phobia. So surprising!!!
