Strangest Phobias to Have

The Top Ten
1 Anglophobia: Fear of England and Its Culture

I don't understand. I must be the complete opposite then. I love England. Ever hear of the fear of cotton balls, though?

Well, that is just plain peculiar. Why would you be scared of England?

I guess I must scare people then.. I'm English..

2 Arachibutyrophobia: Fear of Peanut Butter Sticking to the Roof of the Mouth

How would peanut butter stick to the roof of your mouth?

3 Venustraphobia: Fear of Beautiful Women
4 Soceraphobia: Fear of Parents-in-law

There a TON of people with this fear

5 Genuphobia - Fear of Knees

This is majorly weird! I Can't belive it's down past fear of money

We'll get it above fear of money

6 Chrometophobia: Fear of Money
7 Macrophobia: Fear of Long Waits
8 Geliophobia: Fear of Laughter
9 Somniphobia: Fear of Sleep
10 Eleutherophobia - Fear of Freedom

I have this usually when at school. It's caused by extreme lack of trust of yourself. This can be caused by doing things wrong a lot, overthinking about the things you did wrong in the past a lot, or an extreme case of general bullying. People with this fear usually have a fear of being imperfect that causes them to overthink the wrong things they do. This can also be caused by extreme indecisiveness. I don't trust myself to do anything right, as long as it's offline. I overthink everything I do too. And I am very indecisive. So, this isn't really as weird as it seems above the water. I way prefer having extremely specific tasks to having really open ones. It takes a lot of time to get the confidence to do an open task and when I do it I have more hate towards myself after because I am sure I did it incorrectly. This fear is a b#tch at school.
