Hahaha.
Can anyone of you read that word out loud? I tried, but I stopped at the middle of it since I fear I will get the fobia just trying to read that word

Some of those seem pretty fake.

Albuminurophobia- Fear of kidney disease

Isn't everybody a little afraid of kidney disease?

[DanGrease]

Being afraid is something, having a phobia is another thing. Its kind of like a disease. For example, I am scared of spiders, but I dont have a phobia for spiders. If someone shows me a spider I dont break down in panic and almost faint, those who have phobias do.

I agree 100% with Dan on this one.

Phobophobia- Fear of phobias.

This one has always been my favourite. Sort of the Holy Grail of phobias.

Prepare to panic that you might panic.
