Oikophobia is the
abnormal and persistent fear of home surroundings or a house. It is closely related to Nostophobia, the
fear of returning home. Oikophobia is also known as Domatophoia and Eicophobia.
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.
