Worfealonof! Would be the one I'd make up! Can't believe there is a phobia for everything, there's probably a phobia of having phobias'.

Hey, I found it!!! With the help of my sister RieRie, thanks RieRie. :) I found it on errrrm, www.phobialists.com I think that's the right site. Fear of Phobias - Phobophobia.

I can't find a word for phobia of phobias, maybe it's phobiaphobe or phobiaphobic, that's annoying me now, I'll have to try and find out if the word actually does exist and find out where it is, if I find it, I'll post it here. :)
