Specific Phobias
A specific phobia is the persistent and excessive fear of a particular activity, situation, event, or object. This causes serious anxiety when you have to face these factors in real life. Therefore, people with the condition tend to have a strong desire to avoid these triggers. There is a variety of specific phobias, ranging from arachnophobia or the fear of spiders to claustrophobia or the fear of limited spaces. Even when you can realize the excessive fear, it is hard to control and overcome it. [5]
