This is more commonly describes as a fear of fears, or a fear of developing phobias. People suffering from this disorder often have anxiety issues to begin with and phobophobia is the result of being so afraid of the internal consequences of anxiety.
3. Coulrophobia – Send in the clowns
Bonzo has been known to give some people panic attacks, dizzy spells, and feelings of detachment along with the poodle shaped balloon. It is of course more common in children, and some studies have shown that clown designs on hospital wall paper are a bad idea, but there are many adults suffering from the condition.
4. Teraphobia – Four
A fear of the number four. This condition is found most often in the Eastern world because of the similarity between the Chinese word ‘four, and ‘death’ (In most dialects anyway.)
5. Phagophobia – Swallowing
People suffering from phagophobia complain that they have difficulty swallowing but there is no physical condition hampering them. This was why it was originally named ‘choking phobia’ because it was often brought on by experiencing or witnessing a choking fit.

Not to be confused with misogyny, the loathing or hatred of women, gynophobia is an irrational fear of women.
7. Gephyrophobia – Bridges
The fear of crossing bridges.

According to GleeMagazine.com
1. Plants need sun, water and nutrients to grow. We need food, water, shelter, exercise and community to grow and thrive.
2. Healthy plants can withstand disease, pests and draught, at least for a little while. With reserves of time, money, space, energy and love we can withstand the little bumps in the road.
3. Native plants grow better and with less fuss then exotic plants. Develop your natural skills and talents instead of struggling to become an expert in all areas.
4. Every plant doesn’t have the same level of need for sun, water, and nutrients. Do what works for you, not what works for someone else.
5. Manure and bugs can help plants to grow better. The challenges in life often teach you the best lessons.
6. A garden is never the same. It is always changing, evolving and adapting. We need to be life long learners.
7. Plants have a dormant period when they rest and store energy for their next growth spurt. We too need time to rest and store up energy for the next stage in our growth.
8. Some plant combinations, like marigolds keeping bugs off of the tomato plants are complimentary, others like the ivy that smothers ever plant in its way are deadly. Your neighbors can help or hurt you. Be careful with who you associate.
9. Little weeds are easier to pull then big weeds with deep roots. Practice a little “daily weeding” in your life. Spend sometime every day on the area of your life that tends to get “weedy”. If you seem to accumulate clutter this could be as simple as spending 15 minutes a day de-cluttering.
10. The super huge vegetable doesn’t usually taste good and every gardener knows you can be overrun with zucchini. Bigger isn’t always better and more isn’t always what you really need or want. Know how much is enough for you.

10. Aggravated allergies. Higher carbon dioxide levels and warmer temperatures associated with global warming are also playing a role by prodding plants to bloom earlier and produce more pollen.
9. Animals are moving up to higher land. This is mostly due to changes in their habitats caused by global warming.
8. Arctic natural life is blooming sooner. The ice melts earlier in spring, and higher levels of the form of the photosynthesis product chlorophyll in modern soils than in ancient soils shows a biological bloom in the Arctic in the recent decades.
7. Lakes are disappearing. The permafrost underneath the lakes probably thawed out so the water in the lakes can seep through the soil, draining the lake, and the ecosystems they support also lose their homes.
6. Layer of permanently frozen soil is thawing under the ground’s surface. This causes holes and occurs unevenly, so damage is done to structures such as railroad tracks, highways and houses.
5. Animals playing “survival of the fittest.” The plants are blooming earlier each year, meaning unless animals can reset their internal clocks and get into the open earlier each year, most of their food will be gone and they may not have sufficient time to produce offspring.
4. Less dense atmosphere and less drag. More carbon dioxide emissions causes more of its kind in the air, which, in turn, causes more cooling and again, in turn, causes the air to settle, leaving the atmosphere less dense with less drag.
3. Mountains are growing taller. As glaciers melt, weight that normally pushed against the Earth’s surface is now lifted and the surface slowly springs back up.
2. Ruins are being destroyed. Rising seas and extreme weather can completely destroy temples, ancient grounds and other artifacts, such as Sukothai, which was once the capital of a Thai Kingdom.
1. Forest fires. Canada and the United States are suffering from an extreme number of forest fires, which are due to warmer temperatures and snow that melts earlier, the latter which causes the grounds to stay drier for longer, giving flames more opportunities to develop.
