The Most Bizarre Phobias You Have Ever Heard

Nomophobia Or The Fear Of Being Without Mobile Phone Coverage

This phobia is likely on the rise considering how dependent people are on their mobile phones. Many people experience a twinge of fear if they forget their mobile phone at home or if their phone runs out of battery. However, nomophobia kicks this fear up a notch by triggering panic at the thought of being without a mobile phone or without cellular coverage.

Hylophobia Or The Fear Of Trees

Hylophobes intensely fear trees and forests. Most people would tremble if they got lost in the woods, but for hylophobes, just the thought of the woods makes them shake in their boots. For city dwellers, this phobia might not be easily understood. However, for people living near forests, who have to deal with strange and sometimes threatening animals coming out of the woods, this phobia may be more understandable.
