No you may not.  I will only allow it if you call it quandaphobia\nwith a "u".   Just my 10 cents worth on coining words.

once people feel that they have a grip on life and know all the answers, they become afraid that they might find out something new and have to find new answers. also, the unknown might bring unwelcome change.

From a personal perspective it is thinking that everything in the world is falling apart all around them.. or beyond their control...  And, not having the ability to find the answers for the impossible riddle the world has become. This brings on a lot of anxiety and fear that nothing can be done to right the wrongs that may not even be there to begin with. That was my experience .. Not fun at all.

Sometimes my life flashes by, faster than the speed of light (it seems).\nI start to reflect on my life, my beliefs, my future, my past, then I move on to my inner existential angst, my thoughts and questions about this world and this universe, how small and insignificant I am in this great, big, empty void, and how I keep drowning and struggling in an ocean of possibilities, a vast spread of questions, I don't know where to begin.\nI get this sick feeling in my stomach thinking about Life. It's like...indescribeable. It happens oh so often, and I find myself sometimes trying to stay awake to avoid thinking about things that torment me.\n\nOn some days my brain is merciful and I try to distract myself with thoughts of something exciting I would do the next day when truly, I would just like to sit and ponder, and ask God, if He exists, why?\n\nJenova\n(d.yuffie@gmail.com)

Dude... what kind of question is that?  "Wack off" as often as you like.  Everyone is different.  If you find yourself "wacking off" ALL day, seek psychiatric help.

Wait a minute. Who said people with phobias had an inferior mental state? The only person I know that's said that is you. Some people may have seemingly irrational fears but a lot of them make sense ie; fear of heights, fear of snakes etc. It doesn't mean you're mentally inferior. I'll admit the word 'homophobic' has always confused me a bit too but I very much doubt it was someone who was gay who first came up with the word.\n\nOh, okay. I guess that's fair enough.\n\nI've just found something. I'm not after the best answer, I just thought you'd like to know. The answer to who came up with the word is mentioned here: \nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homophobia\nHe's apparently heterosexual.

Try reading a bit on both Dependent Personality Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder; along with Anxiety Disorders as these (the varied anxiety disorders) address irrational beliefs/fears.    Your question, based upon what you wrote afterwards, sounds less about "creating fear" and more about "filling a void...a hole in our soul" so to speak.  We need to learn to tackle our fears in ways that are not destructive to ourselves or others, facing them, journaling about them, talking to someone we trust and feel very safe with.  A direct answer to the question you posed, in my opinion, would be, "Yes.  We can obsess over our fears of impending doom or losing someone, etc.  That obsession can then immobilize us with overwhelming fear and anxiety."  Hope that helps.

It's human nature to avoid that which makes us feel insecure. If it is a topic that is close to home, it makes the person feel vulnerable, so they avoid the topic. People only deal with uncomfortable subjects when it is unavoidable. For example, do you go to the dentist when a tooth is just starting to cause problems, or do you wait until you're in agony before going to the dentist?

I believe it's an excellent quote.\n\nAlthough many questions are embarassing to ask, and may cause an unexpected response, at you you can rest knowing that you tried to satisfy your curiousity.\n\nAnd if you ask a question when others are by you, you may have asked a question that they were dying to know.\n\n"Curiousity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back."\n\nExcellent question, by the way!

Fear of the unknown.\nFear of separating from the herd.

I have times when I just read  other peoples questions and answers. Usually when I have no questions to ask I have no good answers either. The brain freezzzeeees attack.
