Trichophobia is the abnormal and persistent fear of loose
hairs. I would imagine that this would
be a common phobia among those with disorders that cause the hair to fall out
and those who have to undergo chemotherapy.
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.

your life?
