Are you phobophobic?

You’d be surprised — not to mention fascinated and amazed! — at the fears people have.

READING an article on acrophobia or fear of heights – as one is apt to do – I stumbled upon an odd fact. The most common phobia among people isn’t arachnophobia (fear of spiders), agoraphobia (fear of crowds), or claustrophobia (fear of confined spaces); no, the most common phobia is the fear of public speaking.
