Levophobia: The Fear of Things to the Left Side of the Body


Levophobia is the abnormal and persistent fear of things to the left side of the body.  This one intrigues me, so I really hope someone can share their story and explain how this phobia manifests.

A phobia is a strong, persistent fear of situations, objects, activities or persons.  The main symptom is an excessive and unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. Other phobia symptoms include shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, sweating, nausea, and an overall feeling of dread.  Phobias are the most common form of anxiety disorders.

Do you suffer from Levophobia?  Please share your story.  How was it triggered and how does it affect your life?
