Phobia is a type of anxiety disorder. It is a strong, irrational fear of something that little or no actual danger. For example, some children suffer from school phobia or some people suffer from insect phobia. It seems to be a little thing for other people, but It interferes with their daily life. Many people wonder that why they suffer from usual things. The main symptom of this disorder is unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. It occurs without any external threat. I also understand what they feel because I m one of the phobic people about water. Due to the past experience about the accident. I no need to traveling by boat. I prefer to take time by bus and feel more comfortable.
Fear is an emotional response to somethings or some situations. It is a basic survival mechanism occurring in response to a specific stimulus, such as pain, emergency accident. Fear includes such emotions as happyness, sadness and anger. Fear is not a type of disorder. It is related to the specific behaviors of escape and avoidance or the future events. Everyone can fear but It occurs with external treat and in different sources. who can avoid from fear ?
