PHOBIAS


Almost everyone has an irrational fear or two. For most people, these fears are minor. But for some, these fears cause tremendous anxiety and interfere with normal day-to-day life. When fears are irrational and disabling, they are called phobias. A phobia is an intense, unrealistic fear, which can interfere with the ability to socialize, work, or go about everyday life that is brought on by an object, event or situation. There are about 500 different phobias in the world, and this number is always growing! However I am going to describe just two phobias: brontophobia and aviophobia


BRONTOPHOBIA:


Brontophobia is an abnormal and persistent fear of thunder and lighting. This type of phobia is often present in a mild form with young children, but normally begins to subside as the child enters adolescence. Household pets also sometimes exhibit this fear.

When lightning bolts appear in the skies or the sound of distant thunder reaches the ears of the Brontophobic, anxiety begins to mount. Brontophobia symptoms may include the outbreak of a fully fledged panic attack, including a sense of losing control, the heart begin to palpitate rapidly. Then person may hide under bends, desks, behind sofas or in closets.
