barophobia

Barophobia is the fear of gravity. This one boggles my mind! How does one have a fear of something like gravity? The effects of gravity....Yes. I understand that. I get that looking in the mirror everday. What does one do in the throes of that fear? Lie completely still?

There is also bolshephobia. Which at first glance I thought was fear of bulls**t. But its fear of Bolshevics. Hmm. I guess fear of bulls**t would just be b.s.phobia. I guess if I had that I wouldn't be able to read much on the internet!
