Just look what happened to the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. So I suppose a fear of the end of the world still grips me so I'll be a very relived man if we can see this year out as according to many the world will come to an end on the 21st December.

So when the world comes to an end everything will be plunged into darkness.Ironically Scottishbloke,fear of darkness is know as Scotophobia !

Here's a couple that are kind of connected in an apposing way.Coprostasophobia-fear of constipation & Coprophobia-fear of faeces.Not sure who would admit to these,but enough people for them to be given names.

my phobia is spiders and i had the biggest spider ever in my bathroom today i shit myself

Fear of food-Sitophobia/Cibophobia,fear of drink-Potophobia.These two would really make live difficult.

I heard this one today.



Anatidaephobia - The fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you.

Styglophobia - Fear of Hell. Hexakosiohexekontahexaphobia - Fear of the number 666.

gypsy fashion is terrifying,the hair,the trousers tucked in socks,the smell.

Is there a word to describe the fear of complete paranoia setting in when I become an old man?

Kinda fortunate for you that you were in the bathroom at the time?
