Fears(:

Domatophobia is the fear of houses or being in a house which means you may have to sleep in a tent or another option. This can be treated by slowly being reintroduced to a house or place of residency. Disposophobia is the fear of throwing stuff out which may lead to hoarding. Hoarding is something that is curable but will take a lot of work and you have to want to change. Having a house which you lived in while hoarding will lead to domatophobia. If you have ever seen the show Hoarders Buried Alive. It will give you a better over view on how hard it may be for people to give up there stuff or let go of things. if you have disposophobia you do not want to give up anything, even things that are rotten or garbage. This may lead to a persons life being ruined by living in filth. They may also experience health problems.



Nostophobia is the fear of returning home from things such as vacation. Some people just get to excited beign gone and have a phobia of coming home. I can't blame them if they went somewhere nice and are coming back to Belle Fourche.

Lots of Fears!

Amychophobia is the fear of scratches or being scratched. This can be from animals, humans or just bumping your arm wrong. Depending on how serious our phobia is this can be a very large burden on your life. Epistaxiophobia is the fear of nosebleeds which can be caused by heat or getting punched in the face. This would be really scary if someone wanted to fight you, you would probably have a heart attack before the fight even happened. Having a fear of nosebleeds may make you also have a fear of heat.

 Hematophobia is the fear of blood. Which would be very bad if you had a fear of nosebleeds and blood.  Odynephobia is the fear of pain. This can be pain caused by anything including fights, running into walls, or anything else that causes pain. I can't imagine being afraid of pain. I do not like pain but the thought of actually being scared of pain doesn't even seem realistic. All these can be fixed with couciling and work.

666. A scary number?

Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia is the fear of the number 666. This is a very common fear and can be feared religiously or by superstition. The number 666 is usually used in scary movies or to freak people out. Some signs of this fear are if a grocery total is $6.66, you may feel compelled to add or subtract an item. You may block channel 666 from your cable listings or drive around your neighborhood to change your odometer reading from 666 to 667. If it appears often even by covincidense you may feel like its a sign, which may scare you even more. This number is thought to be the number of the beast or Satan. This number could be very scary to some people. Numerophobia is the fear of numbers. This is all numbers in general. But this would make math very difficult and even things such as grocery shopping or even reading.
