Methyphobia is the
abnormal and persistent fear of alcohol.
Those who suffer from this phobia may also fear anyone who consumes or
has consumed alcohol. They will also
avoid places where there is a possibility of being exposed to alcohol. Methyphobia is also known as Potophobia. It is closely related to Dipsophobia, the
fear of drinking alcohol.
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.
