Phobia

Phobia is one of the most common anxiety disorders in the U.K. with around 10% of us claiming to experience debilitating levels of anxiety in response to a range of objects and situations. You will know when a fear has become a phobia when it is affecting your everyday life as the need to avoid the source of your fear dominates everything else.
