Phobias

"A phobia is an anxiety disorder characterised by an overwhelming fear or dread of certain objects, animals, events or situations. A phobia can cause severe dusruption and restriction of normal life activities and, at its worst, intense misery and suffereing for the phobic person. The word is derived from the Greek phobos meaning extreme fear and flight. The ancient Greek God, Phobos, was believed to be able to reduce the enemies of the Greeks to a state of abject terror, making victory in battle more likely."

My bro has a book called "Understanding Phobias" and I realised I have been suffering from Felinophobia (Fear of cats) since young.

When I was staying in NUS hall, I suffered from Coprastasophobia (Fear of constipation), so I have to eat a cup of yogurt every night while watching my ma jun wei on Channel U.

I frequently suffered from Sequipedalophobia (Fear of long words)...i see big ang moh word i scare...

Met a minor accident in Genting, and I have Epistaxiophobia (Fear of nosebleeds) ever since then....

And definitely Pocrescophobia (Fear of obesity)!! My brother said I'll soon develop Anorexia 'cos he can feel my spine (so duh...), but then I don't have Antlophobia (Fear of food)...in fact I love food so my brother is WRONG! Wait till he see viv.....he'll definitely say she's suffering from Bulimia...

Just hope that I won't develop Anuptaphobia (Fear of being single!) and Venustraphobia (Fear of beautiful woman) or i'll hate myself....hoo!

Oh man...I'm really a sicko Jun!

P/S: I can't find the phobia name for fear of fyp leh.....hmm...
