Well, Its Monday.

I thought this fear would be an interesting one to start out with, it is called bibliophobia. It is the fear of books! Imagine that, actually being afraid of books. If you suffer from bibliophobia you may shake, sweat, or cry when having to read. This phobia may cause you to skip class or sit in the back of the room. Bibliophobia can really effect your life in school and work. They say you can be cured by going to counciling so they can show you new ways to think about books.

Didaskaleinophobia goes hand in hand with bibliophobia because it is the fear of going to school. This creates a very big problem because now if your under 18 you are required to go to school. Phobias cannot be cured but can be helped. Symptoms of Didaskaleinophobia are as follows: the feeling of doing everything possible to not go to school, anxiety when school is brought up, anxiety that gets so bad you can hardly function.So next time you call into school sick tell them you have a serious case of didaskaleinophobia. There are online tests that you can take to see if you may have this phobia.If you suffer from this you may experience shaking, sweating, chest pain, and lightheadedness while being in or around a school.

I had all the symptoms of didaskaleionophobia when I was in math class. Needless to say, it wasn't fun and math isn't fun. Anyways, I've never heard of the phobia of school - makes you wonder what sort of catastrophic event in a person's life could cause such intense emotional and physical distress, doesn't it?

I believe that any,one person may be judged insane by having bibliophobia of didaskaleinophobia, but when you diagnose the whole school with these phobias, you have a requirement.
