"Because I know that I'm scared most of the things that are listed here"




Seriously? You're afraid of all those things? My goodness, life must be extremely difficult. I'm afraid of roller coasters, not in the sense that I'm afraid they'll come and get me, but I do care to ride on them. I'm not fond of heights either, or spiders. I'd hardly call any of these a 'phobia' though. For it to be that bad, I think it really needs to impede your life, not just be a casual dislike or abstract fear.

Glossophobia — fear of speaking in public or of trying to speak.

That's all from this list.

By the way, did you know that there is a -phobia name for fear of the full moon and there's also one for fear of the new moon or moon-less night. I forgot the names myself, but they're out there.
