15 Weird Phobias That Actually Exist

People around the world suffer from weird phobias that actually exist! There are different types of phobias, and they affect about 10% of the adult population worldwide. A phobia is the irrational, persistent fear of certain situations, objects, activities, or persons. Sufferers develop an excessive and unreasonable need to avoid the feared subject.

These fears often result from a terrifying personal experience or trauma. Fear also develop in the mind based on things described as fearsome. Or, it can be a result of classical conditioning.

We’ve all heard of fears and phobias such as the fear of spiders to the fear of clowns and snakes. But, both common and bizarre phobias can be equally devastating to live with. Even if they seem silly or funny to others.
