Illyngophobia is the
abnormal and persistent fear of vertigo or of feeling dizzy when looking
down. This phobia is related to
Acrophobia, the fear of heights. Those
who suffer from Illyngophobia do not suffer from a fear of heights, but they
fear looking down from a high place.
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.
