Allodoxaphobia, decidiophobia, nomophobia, catoptrophobia, and chorophobia. Want to know about some of the rarest phobias? Sometimes, fears become excessive and irrational, to the point where we can’t function normally. The intense worry and avoidance caused by these fears can interrupt day to day living, causing panic when that fear is encountered – that’s when the fear becomes a phobia. In a previous video, we talked about the most common phobias. Many of you requested one about the strange phobias or most rare phobias. We've honored your request and made a list. Let us know if you know someone who identifies with any of these. Also, do you enjoy this animation style?
Disclaimer: If you are suffering from a specific phobia of any kind, don’t hesitate to reach out to a mental healthcare professional today to help ease your fears and better manage your phobias.
