Phobias are a serious and very tasking topic. Some would say there are some really odd phobias out there, which all depends on your personal point of you. However, I can't for the life of me find the name of the one I really want to know... just don't ask why...
what is the fear of doors called?
thats right... doors...
Anyone feel free to ask the names of other phobias on this forum also

A fear of doors -- interesting. Is it a fear of getting hit by an open door, or what could be on the other side of the door (like the rest of the world)? I have no idea what this might be called!
Ajaraphobia, maybe?

I've had a look on a really good site and I can't find it. I'll check a few other sites after the weekend.

There's a difference though if you need them to open so you can get out or if you just want them to open so you can get in.

I have a list of 100 phobias (probably voted for by the nation) somewhere. I promise to find it out and check for doors.
Fear of chickens I can understand, but not that of buttons.
