Pogonophobia is the
abnormal and persistent fear or dislike of beards. I’m going to take a wild guess that those who
suffer from this phobia don’t watch Duck Dynasty. Beards have once again become popular among
men and for those who have Pogonophobia the beard fad is a nightmare. Obviously men with phobia won’t grow a beard
and everyone with this phobia will try to avoid anyone with a beard. This can have a major impact on their lives.
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.
