I have had agoraphobia for over 20 years now. I found your definition to be a little off. So I'll copy what I found online.
Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder characterized by anxiety in situations where the sufferer perceives the environment to be dangerous, uncomfortable or unsafe. These situations can include wide-open spaces, uncontrollable social situations, unfamiliar places, shopping malls, airports and bridges. As one may imagine this limits a persons social/love life. Just thought I'd add my perspective. |

Debbie I just checked 53. Ranidaphobia The fear of frogs. Often caused by episodes from childhood As far as i know, many women fear frogs. I am surprised it is at number 53 It was just because fairly recently, I saw something on the living room floor so I went to see what it was and a frog jumped at me, lmao. I think i jumped about 3 miles. I rescued him and put him outside. I named him Freddy, Freddy the frog. Don't know for sure how he got in, but I think the cats know, but he wasn't hurt at all, I checked him over and he was hopping well. Only problem for Freddy is, I think I perforated his ear drums by screaming. awwwwwww, poor Freddy. |

#7 for me
The frogs reminded me of similar event. My son caught tadpoles and kept them in his bedroom. One night, I'm going up to bed and see what looked like a big stuffed frog at the top of the stairs. I thought, man that toy really looks real, and when I reached for it, it jumped, and I jumped farther. Came to realize the tadpoles grew into frogs without me paying attention to it and a few had gotten out of the container they were in. |
