my discussion about phobia.

hi my dear friends,
go to this url : medicinenet.com
hope u all can go to this web
it provide lots of information about our topic.

this web said that,
phobia is An unreasonable sort of fear that can cause avoidance and panic.
Phobias are a relatively common type of anxiety disorder.

this definition is close 2 my definition in my last comment
which i read from the wikipedia page.

Dryden-Edwards,MD said define that phobia is the unrelenting fear of situation, activities or things that causes someone to want to avoid it.
from this article i get some information about this topic.
there are many types of phobia.let me list it.
1. social anxiety disorder such as fear of public speaking
2. agrophobia- fear of open spaces
3. coulrophobia-fear of close-in spaces
4. coulrophobia-fear of clowns
5. aerophobia-fear of flying
6. fear of blood
7. zoophobia-fear of animals
8. fear of commitment
9. fear of driving
10. acrophobia-fear of heights
11. archnophobia-fear of insects especially spiders
12. aichmophobia-fear of needles
13. opnidiophobia-fear of snakes
14. mysophobia-fear of germs
15. dentophobia-fear of having dental check-up

from the list, i make a conclusion that since there are many types of phobia,
sometimes people really no aware that they do suffer phobia or not.
this is because the level phobia that one suffer is not the same with others.
so that is why people do not realize that they actually had phobia problem.
for example, i,m afraid of insects but i don't notice that i am actually suffer from archnophobia.
i only realize after i reading this article.

you guys should read this article because it contains lots of information about health and especially about our topic.
