araind of a loud bang is not a disorder it's survival instinct

Posted by Danedukenuuk Jan 28 '10, 07:31

A phobia (from the Greek: φόβος, ph�bos, meaning "fear" or "morbid fear") is an intense and persistent fear of certain situations, activities, things, animals, or people. The main symptom of this disorder is the excessive and unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. When the fear is beyond one's control, and if the fear is interfering with daily life, then a diagnosis under one of the anxiety disorders can be made.[1]
