What's Your Phobia?
Duration: 2 years from start date

Some people suffer from phobias which are persistent fears of an object or situation. Phobias can be considered irrational fears by some people. Phobias can cause the person severe anxiety and debilitating fear.

This challenge will focus on some of the phobias out there.
All you have to do for this challenge is pick which phobias you'd like to read about and read a task for it. This challenge is similar to last year's phobia's challenge except that there are no levels and this is just a choose your own challenge. You can pick a few phobias per category or just decide to choose phobias from one category.

So have fun and get ready to be scared!



You can post your lists for the challenge but no reading until January 1, 2014

In your post tell us what your scared of!
