Cacophobia: The Fear of Ugliness

Cacophobia is the fear of ugliness or of things that are ugly. I couldn’t find a lot of information about this one. some of the main triggerI am very curious to know what causes this phobia and whats may be. Ugliness can be unpleasant, but I can’t imagine having a phobia towards it. What exactly is considered to be ugly? If anyone suffers from this phobia, please tell us more about it.

I suffer from it. My main fear is about myself. The fear of me being ugly. It consumes me. I'm trying to get help for it but this phobia isnt heard of very often and I cant find a doctor who specializes in it in my area. I'll update you when I find out more.

Dear Cristina,

I think I contracted cacophobia. I am afraid of ugly things. I go to sleep every night and dream very bad dreams about being ugly. I wake up in a state of terror; luckily I just go over to the mirror and I'm refreshed by my personal appearance. If I weren't so cute, I don't know what I'd do? I need help..... Please comment back and let's nick this phobia in the butt.(aka nip it in the bud)Thanks :)
