Hello Mike, I have a few very common phobias, but the one that really baffled me, was the one involving underwater, man-made objects, such as propellers, underwater pilings, from old wooden docks, etc. Anyway, as a teen, I discovered this weird fear of mine, while out boating with my dad. I was too embarrassed to discuss it with anyone, until I came across it on KZbin recently, and realized I share this phobia, with many others. It's called submechanophobia, and, just like you mentioned, fears are a very real thing, to those who actually experience them. Much success to you on your extremely interesting videos! Greetings from N. Kentucky!

Mike, I've missed you so much!!! I've been watching daily since you've been back. Life feels right again. For me, I found out I have trypophobia, a fear of clusters of holes. Ones found in nature specifically trigger me (wasp nests, honeycomb, that weird brown plant thing that looks like a wasp nest, etc.) but not things like bread or sponges. Triggers make me feel itchy all over and overall extremely uncomfortable. Even in my nightmares I'm wake up throwing myself across my bed to get away from it. My therapist helped me trace the source, and it's because of an article my mother showed me when I was a tween (thanks for the added lifelong trauma, mommy dearest)

Our daughter has a terrible fear of the stomach virus. It puts her in a panic if she hears that someone close to her has had this problem or if she finds out she is in the presence of someone that has had any type of GI tract issue. She seriously goes into a panic and will be in a tailspin for three day, which is longer than the stomach bug usually lasts. She can't control it whatsoever. it's debilitating and I as her Dad, hate it for her!

Welcome back Mike, missed you. So I am an adult and I’m still afraid of the dark. This is probably the most embarrassing one and the one I don’t admit to most people. Once I am in bed, and I know the lights are all turned off in the house, I’m OK as long as I’m not near the edge of the bed. I thought it was very interesting about the fear of not being able to leave somewhere. I have this feeling when I ride an elevator, especially by myself. I usually attributed it to claustrophobia, which I also have, and has gotten worse since I’ve gotten older. One last comment: what about all the people that come home and need something on like the TV radio etc. Are they actually uncomfortable with silence?

Thank you for this list. I have apiphobia (stinging insects) and another zoophobia. When people you know don't take your phobia seriously and decide to tease you about it or put you in situation of your phobia for fun, can seriously terrify you. Please do not do this. You may not understand it but this is real for some people. Ablutophobia can be caused by watching "Phsycho". I know people who refuse to use a shower after that.

I hope that someday, I can get over my fear of electricity because it definitely holds me back in life. I sympathize with anyone who has a crippling phobia like me because it's really no way to live. I'm currently seeing a therapist about other things and I'm hoping that she can help me get over my fear.

Ablutophobia is also common with Autistic children and adults. The bathtub environment can be overwhelming, bright, shiny, cold, and sound is odd in a bathrub too. I am an adult with Autism, and I ahve a terrible time showering. It's debilitating, honestly. From fearing I'll be interupted by my cousin/roommate, to fearing running out of hot water, to feeling the spray on my skin is irritating for me, and it IS, I have to carefully select times to shower, and put it off as long as possible. It is crippling and I feel silly, but it's so hard to just go for it. I also have trouble eating, another sadly commont trait for people with Autism. I should not even be alive, I eat so little. It's very hard to explain too. Sometimes I am able to eat daily for weeks then I simply stop for weeks. I'll snack, or force myself to make a sandwich, and eat once a day only even when I am able to cook and feed myself. It IS a fear, but one I cannot point out and say "This is why." This is made worse by being Bulimic in my teens, and then overfed by my former husband, who wanted me to be too fat for anyone to try and take from him. So, food, not my friend, in my own mind at least.

31 yr old with autism here. I'm not sure if it's the same with you, but if I'm not hungry for something, I can't eat it ie I can really only eat if I'm hungry for a food (or type of food). I can be starving, but if nothing on the table matches what I'm hungry for, I can maybe only stand a bite or two. I also have a hard time eating in front of people unless I'm really comfortable with them

Wow so interesting, I am in the processes of getting an Autism diagnoses and I also only eat about once a day. I LOVE food but HATE the feeling of being full, so I eat a lot when I eat, but don't do it very often. I also really like to make my own food and go so far as to pickle my own pickles and make my own pasta sauce from scratch because nothing from the store tastes right. Also until I was about 20 I used to eat with a napkin in front of my face unless I was eating around family, I really didn't want anyone to see me eat. Even now I know at least 24 hours ahead of time what I will eat and sometimes up to a week ahead of time.

I loved swimming and bathing until my move back to Indiana in 2005. Also thanks for the Nomophobia, I believe it is an addiction cause and wondered how long it would take to be recognized.

When I was younger I was terrified of butterflies. I was in my teens when I was finally able to be outside around them. When I was little, maybe 4, my mom sent me outside to play in our fenced in back yard. Our yard was always covered in butterflies because of all the flowers we had in the yard. Well my mom locked me out & wouldn't let me in. So I stayed by the back door for a couple of hours crying until my mom finally let me in...and from that day forward I was terrified of butterflies. It wasn't until after I had lots of therapy that I was able to get over my fear. Now I am terrified of bees due to getting stung & almost dying. Although the humor isn't lost on my family & I over my fear of bees. My name, Melissa, means honey bee, & the fear of bees is called melissophobia...lol

First off, welcome back Mike. Ok so when I was first watching horror movies at 17,I got into watching East Asian horror. This also included watching the American remake of the Ju-on or Grudge series. I definitely developed a fear of being in a shower, long hairs and mirrors. I've matured and gotten over them but I can definitely see how some people might have those fears.

I have somnophobia. It stems from a deep fear of having nightmares, caused by extreme PTSD, for me at least. I also have day-night reversal issues, which is a circadian rhythm disorder. I take two antidepressants and a large dose of melatonin to sleep. It is a struggle to convince myself to take said medication, because I know it leads to falling asleep. I have panic attacks knowing that it's time to sleep. I procrastinate until I'm exhausted and usually my "days" last more than 24 hours, which leads to a constantly rotating sleep schedule. Even after I take my meds, as I feel them start to work, I panic. I have to fall asleep with both light and noise around me, as a distraction.... like, listening to videos like this. XD Eventually, the meds just push me over the edge, and I wake up not even remembering how hard it was to go to sleep. I'm constantly tired, though. Like, 24 hours a day. I talk and move around in my sleep a lot. I just never rest well, and when I DO have bad nightmares, it's even worse. I don't think most people even understand how bad nightmares can be. Imagine being chased by something that you know is literally going to murder you, and you are supposed to be somewhere that you can't get, at the cost of severe punishment. So, not only are you running for your life, but you know that even if you survive, your life is OVER. Say, for example, you are in the military (a common theme in my nightmares, from my service in the Navy), and someone is chasing you to kill you, and you were supposed to check the watch bill as soon as you got on board your ship, and you could be missing a watch right now and you don't even know it, and you can't find your uniforms, and again, someone is trying to kill you, and you are running... and then you are trapped, and they are almost to you, and there's no way out, and you feel this for what feels like HOURS. You won't ever understand that terror until you've served...

I was so happy to see omphalophobia on your list. I have been aware of my omphalophobia only since my late teens. I don't care about seeing them, but I am terrified of seeing people touching their own, touching other people's, touching mine, and I can't touch my own. When you pulled your shirt up I freaked out, just in case you touched yours on camera and had to listen rather than watch until you moved on. I have other phobias, but this is the only one I give into. As a result, my children all have deformed belly-buttons, because I couldn't take care of them properly when my babies were born. I disagree with your reasoning as to what we're afraid of. In my case, I'm not afraid of belly-buttons ravelling. It comes down to non-consensual penetration that I can't control, so more likely to do with trauma and PTSD. Two years ago, a student of mine found out about this phobia and rubbed his belly button on me in order to get what he wanted. I was clothed at the time, but my boss didn't care. He received three day suspension due to physical and sexual assault of a teacher.

I definitely have a degree of kenophobia. The first time i really experienced it was when i traveled with friends, and when i got out of the car, i looked up and felt like the sky was gonna swallow me whole. It was the first time i saw the sky so open and unobstructed. It looked like it could go on forever. I gasped and pressed myself up against the car. Literally took my breath away. Luckily, no one noticed, and we got into the house quickly. But man, my heart was pounding, and i felt so unsafe. It is definitely an odd feeling. Same thing with open fields or the ocean.

your videos are very informative and entertaining. I started watching the 25 phobias segment knowing that I don't have any and at the end I had "em all... 😉. all kidding aside, I related to plutophobia (fear of money) and eisoptrophobia (fear of mirrors). when the Powerball lottery was nearing $2B I seriously thought about what I would do with what I considered a "disgusting amount of money" and despite the minute chances of winning, it actually caused me a little anxiety thinking about it. interestingly enough I worked in finance and accounting for most of my professional life so I am familiar with the effort and responsibility that comes with it which probably had a lot to do with the anxiety. I concluded that I would hire a reputable financial consultant and pay him or her to deal with it. But who? My phobia concerning mirrors is much easier to explain. when I look in the mirror it destroys my extremely positive self-image.

My mom was bitten by a rattlesnake as a child, back before antivenin was a thing. Luckily, it was just a glancing blow, but she was really sick and the experience left her with a severe snake phobia. Actually, salamanders, worms, my pet rat's tail, anything snakelike. But by her early 70s, she worked hard to overcome it and even once picked up a snake. (It was very cold and couldn't respond to her.) Sometimes I don't think she had a phobia, which is an irrational fear.I think she had PTSD from the experience of being bitten by a rattlesnake during an Era when there wasn't medical treatment available for such things.

I always say for everything that is on the planet, there is one person who is afraid of it. I have Anxiety and Panic Disorder and specifically telephobia. Every fear should be taken seriously. I actually had problems getting into a clinic a few years ago, because I couldn't call myself (you had to call every morning to see if a bed was free) and had my roommate call for me instead and the clinic (yes a mental health clinic) said there was no such thing as telephobia and if I didn't call myself I couldn't be admitted. (Luckily I was a returning guest and knew the head doctor, I was in within the week) and I also suffer from an intense fear of Bologna (don't laugh the smell of it is enough to give me a panic attack and yes it is a childhood trauma), going down stairs (yes I go up the stairs but take the elevator on the way down, also afraid of elevators, but I find usually one fear is stronger than the other one and that decides the course of action) and cockroaches (I swear I had a full on heart attack last time I say one. Couldn't sleep right for a month) I am constantly checking to make sure I haven't lost any jewelry. I check at least 4 if not 6 times before I leave the house that I have my keys, I am afraid to cross the street and will scream if a car gets within 50 meters of me. I can''t smoke around water because I am afraid to get my cigarette wet, washing a wine glass is stress pure (I am sure it is going to break) and on top of that, anytime I have a passing thought like "oh that's not in a good position, it might break/ fall/ ect" I must act on the thought, even at 3 in the morning.

I developed a new phobia later in life. I found myself in criminal legal trouble ad was arrested and taken into custody. Unfortunately I was also the victim of mistreatment while in custody. As a result I am now afraid of Law Enforcement Officers. Everytime I see a Squad Car or a Uniformed Officer I get a chill running down my spine. A real nice addition to my Claustrophobia.

The phone addiction…that’s how it feels for addicts when they can’t get their drug BUT, if someone loses their phone they’re just gonna freak out until they find it. Addicts will freak out they can’t find their drugs but also go into withdrawal. So imagine not finding your phone, you’ve ripped everything apart, your house looks like a tornado hit it, you are begging people to help you but everyone is turning their backs,, you’re starting to sweat and get pains in your stomach. The sweating gets more and more and now you are going between the chills and being hot, sweating through your clothes. Your whole body aches and nothing you do will help at all. Your stomach is now rumbling nonstop and now you’re starting diarrhea. Now you’re at the point that you just lay on the bathroom floor because you don’t know what’s gonna come out of where and when. This is a real experiment doctors have done to people. They take their phones for undetermined amount of time. The scientists know how long, but the test subjects don’t. You may be able to find the video on KZbin. It really made a lot of people understand a little bit better of what addicts go through daily. It’s NOT fun.

Agoraphobia is real but was incorrectly defined. It is NOT the fear of being trapped because trapped is exactly what an agoraphobia is. It is fear of crowds or wide-open spaces. Generally, it is the fear of leaving the house. My agoraphobia actually came in handy during the lockdown, because I was able to commiserate and help people who felt trapped by being stuck at home deal with their issues. I also didn't have to explain why I never went out anymore.

I knew someone who had the Pickle Phobia and was willing to talk about at lunch one time at work. She said that pickles look like fingers and olives look like eyes in formaldehyde. She said her phobia started in grade 8 when they first where shown two different jars to be passed around the room containing fingers and the other was tongues. But the greenish color and some of wrinkling of the fingers and tongues is what stuck in her mind. After that she couldn't eat pickles. Things like pickled peppers that the brine is more a off white- yellow and the peppers retain their bright natural color don't bother her. But olives and cucumber pickles are the real ones that completely cause a Phobia response. This seems like a mild thing and not much of an issue because initially to those without this Phobia, it seems like "well don't buy pickles". Except that many buffets, banquets, pot lunch events, seminars etc include trays of pickles. This can cause great anxiety for people with this Phobia to the extent of not attending or have panic attacks if it is a mandatory work function because often you cannot opt out. Pickles are pretty much a common item in restaurants just like cheese and can be found in your food that you may have ordered but is not explicitly listed on the menu. Most people do not have pickle allergies so restaurants may not list that the dish you order contains pickles. Sometimes they are used as a garnish as well. For people with this Phobia, they often either have to explicitly ask the waiter if any pickles will be present but others eating with them may have plates of food with pickles. This often results in these individuals to not want to go to restaurants and they can develop an additional fear of being asked to go to restaurants or other food related events further interfering with their social life.

Out of these, I have multiple forms of zoophobia (particularly spiders, wasps, bees, hornets and crane flies, and then some others to a smaller degree), as well as thanatophobia and coulrophobia to some degree. I had all of these fears way more when I was younger. My family has some weird fears. There's common ones like my dad's fear of heights and my mom's fear of mice, but almost everyone in my family has more unconventional ones. My mom is afraid of toads, and I've seen situations that make me suspect my oldest sister has a bit of a fear of birds. My other sister has a phobia of fruits and cannot touch, let alone cut or eat fruit... which was a major problem when she was training to be a teacher for young children. As for mine? Time to embarrass myself. I have a massive fear of thunderstorms, and being outside during one will absolutely make me panic. I also have a big fear of dolls. Not only is there a room in my grandparents' house dedicated to my late grandmother's doll collection, my sister makes and sells small dolls of her own that I struggle to look at. My grandma's dolls are definitely far creepier though. This doll phobia also played a role in me getting a phobia I have of witches in some occasions, specifically of witch dolls and statues. It happened when my family convinced me to shake the hand of a witch doll in my grandparents' house, and its eyes lit up in red and the doll started cackling. That moment scared me so much that I'd have dreams on an almost daily basis with the witch in it, most commonly one of it chasing me through my grandpa's house. My grandpa had to move it out of the living room when I came over for many years, and part of me wishes he'd still do it because I genuinely still cannot look at it. After an incident where I cut a gash in my pinky, I have a bit of a fear of opening cans (the ones you have to pull on and the whole top comes off) as well, and physically cannot bring up enough strength while pulling one open anymore. I also have a pretty big fear of fires. Even candles make me a bit uncomfortable. And to start the two most embarrassing fears I have, I suffer from a probably relatively mild case of koumpounophobia, which Steve Jobs apparently also suffered from. Now what is that? It is a fear of, or in my case more so a really bad discomfort around, buttons on clothes. For me personally, it doesn't occur with every single type, but most types do trigger it for me. I have no idea what gave it to me because I've had it for as long as I can remember, but it seems to be associated with autism, which I do have. It fills me with feelings of disgust, like the article of clothing is dirty. I really never mention it to anyone due to how embarrassed I am by it, but my family does know, which is cool because they pick out clothes with that in mind. And then my other one. Take sensitive ears; I hate loud noises and dread them all the time. Add to that an aversion to being startled, things that catch me off guard because they were sudden and unexpected. Combine those two and you get a perfect thing for me to be infamously afraid of: church bells. I cannot stand them. As a kid I was unable to walk past a church without covering my ears and even to this day I find it hard to do, even if I know the bells won't ring. It's gotten better over the years but the uncomfortable feeling is still there. This fear also makes it so that church towers feel significantly more imposing and tall than other tall structures. Am I aware that most of these are very irrational? Absolutely. Do I feel embarrassed? Most definitely. Do I expect people will judge me for these? Yes. But I have them nonetheless. Feel free to ask any questions about any of these, because I know a few of them are rare. I've never met anyone else who suffered from the last two.

I also am autistic, and loud noises do bother me, but I'm not necessarily afraid of them; thunder when it's super close by, though, really startles me, as well as something heavy nearby that falls onto a hard surface... I'm also sensitive to bright lights any brighter than a phone or computer screen, especially the sun. Doesn't mean I'm afraid of those sources, though, thankfully; they just bother me sometimes... Certain textures through touch get to me, too, which makes me picky about what I eat, walk on in bare feet, wear, touch with my hands, etc... Dolls do slightly give me the creeps, mainly due to the lore behind the Chucky and Annabelle characters, but I grew up playing with dolls, so they usually don't bother me... However, one of my big fears is arachnophobia, most definitely, as well as a fear of insects or other creatures that can hurt me... If any one of those things get near me, I freak out, though only if confronted with the real things; I'm okay with fake ones or just pictures or vids of them... Another one that really gets me is the fear of speaking, acting, dancing, singing, or just being in front of a bunch of people staring at me, or even just one or two people, for that matter... I start stuttering, look around nervously, then just freeze, or I may burst into tears from the stress, too. One more thing: I think I'm also afraid of anything that's related to any kinda horror stuff, like gore(I'm _really_ squeamish...), paranormal that's realistic, jumpscares, you get the idea... On the other hand, I can handle stuff that's slightly creepy yet still kid friendly, like the movies Nightmare Before Christmas or the Hotel Translyvania movies, or the Monster High fandom(the original, not the remakes)... 😉

I realize this was over a year ago now, but I share that fear, and wouldn't laugh at you for having it, either... Been stung way too many times... Not an absurd amount of times through my life like fifty or more, but around at least three separate times... There were likely at least a couple other times when I was growing up that I got stung by a wasp/hornet/yellow jacket, but I can't remember any specific instances besides those three... Regardless, though, they really hurt, and those times sure gave me apiphobia... Mosquitos, though, I'm not afraid of; I'm just really annoyed by them, and they seem to really love biting me when I'm either outside or one or more have snuck in the house during the warmer months... They just really _bug_ me... (See what I did there?? XD) As in my previous comment from over a year ago, I also suffer from arachnophobia... If I see one outside, or one that's snuck into the house that catches me off guard, I totally flip out! If it's small enough, like dime size(legs and all) or smaller, I'll kill it myself, but otherwise, someone else has to do it... Yeesh... 😖

I actually don't like killing animals, so if I see a spider somewhere that I could kill, I just leave it be and try to get it to leave naturally by leaving my bedroom door open when I'm out of the room or something like that.

Omg. I actually have clinically diagnosed somniphobia. I have extremely severe night terrors which are caused by diagnosed PTSD. The longest I have been awake at once, was 6 days. I usually sleep about 10-15 hours per week. I am legally disabled because of the severity of my Agoraphobia. Its so severe that last time I talked to my physiatrist, I was explaining how I'm beating myself up over not working working right now. She told me, very point blank, there is absolutely zero possibility of me being employable, because of the level of my disorder. Its absolutely nothing for me to to not leave my apartment and not speak to anyone for up to 2 months straight. Agoraphobia is the most messed up and hardest to understand of all disorders in psychology. I don't really fear money. I just absolutely detest it and everything it stands for.

But my agoraphobia has gotten worse year after year that won’t leave my home. It is unreal as I used to be outgoing and sociable, went everywhere. Had plans for every day. Now I can’t leave my bedroom without feeling like I’m leaving the house and start freaking out. I also have light sensitive epilepsy and major depression. I’m miserable but working on things with my doctor. But it is NOT easy!
