Urgh. What do you mean if it exists or not? It takes one person to feel those fears strongly enough to make it happen. I am pretty sure there is at least one person in the world out there who has those phobias.

Just feeling scared of “being single” or “marriage” doesn’t mean you have either one of those. I don’t know what the criteria is, but for it to be a phobia, it has to be close to debilitating.

Thirdly, labels help with diagnosis. Yes, they can easily get very limited and cause more problems, but without them, it is like swimming in the pool of “phobias” without knowing what you’re scared of.

my reservation is that one can put ‘phobia’ against every word and it becomes real. right? I mean GS phobia can be a real thing too by this token.
