Atlas de las fobias y las manías

Brontophobia, or the pathological fear of storms, is considered a childhood terror, but many more adults are affected. Erotomania, or love obsession, is both the uncontrollable anguish over unrequited love and the self-deception of feeling desired by someone. Gerascophobia, related to what is known as Peter Pan syndrome, describes the aversion to old age or the aging of those we love. Choreomania is the prevailing need to dance relentlessly until you drop. More than half of the world's population suffers from nomophobia, the excessive panic of not having a mobile phone at hand. Everyone, without exception, is obsessed with something. While society considers its individuals' phobias and hobbies to be unforgivable defects, just understanding them can help us understand ourselves and those around us. To reconcile with ourselves. To feel a little less alone.
