A phobia, (from the Greek word for fear), is an irrational, persistent fear of certain situations, objects, activities, or persons. The main symptom of this disorder is the excessive, unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. Phobias are a form of anxiety, often debilitating in nature. Some phobias can be linked back to a specific event, but some develop over time as a result of an anxiety going unchecked, or sometimes as a way of avoiding a stressful problem.
