What is your phobia? Here's a near complete list of phobia words

Here is a near complete list of phobia words you can ever find in our time. If not complete, this could be the most exhaustive compilation of phobias ever known. I collected them while doing my lexicographic work that runs for about three decades now. Some of them cannot be found yet in standard dictionaries, both printed and online. As soon as they will see this list, I expect them to check and update theirs.

You can use the Ctrl + F keyboard command, or view this page in Chrome and select "Find in page" in the 3-dots dropdown menu (see upper right side of this page) and then type the keyword that best describes the phobia you long to find.
