Weirdest Phobias People Suffer From

Before watching
A. Read and comment.
Overview
A phobia is an irrational fear of something that’s unlikely to cause harm. The word itself

According to the DSM, specific phobias typically fall within five general categories:
 fears related to animals (spiders, dogs, insects)
 fears related to the natural environment (heights, thunder, darkness)
 fears related to blood, injury, or medical issues (injections, broken bones, falls)
