most of us are afraid of something. it may be usual or unusual for some pero there is a certain thing that will sweat the hell out of you.
sa ngayon, marami na ang kinatatakutan ng mga Pilipino: sudden rise of the prices of basic commodities including rice, gas and utilities, disaster-related accidents, felony-related incidents at ultimo Chinese milk, kinatatakutan natin.
but at some point, meron talaga tayong specific fear sa mga bagay-bagay around us. here are some to name a few:
1. Agoraphobia (fear of open or public spaces)
- ibig sabihin, ayaw mong pumunta sa puntahan ng maraming tao like sa mall, sa mga park.
2. Xenophobia (fear of stangers or foreign people)
- ayaw mong makakita ng mga foreigner at parang feeling mo, kakainin ka nila ng buhay.
3. Acrophobia (fear of heights)
- hindi mo gustong magtrabaho sa mga high-rise building at ayaw mong tumambay sa mga rooftops para mag-yosi.
4. Claustrophobia (fear of Santa - no not really - fear of enclosed spaces)
- simple lang. hindi ka sasakay sa elevator dahil feeling mo, stairway to heaven na sya.
5. Social phobia (aka “social anxiety disorder,” fear of social situations)
- hindi ka friendly at ayaw mong makisalamuha sa ibang tao.
6. Arachnophobia (fear of spiders)
- tulad ko, ayaw mong makakita lalo na yung makahawak ka ng mga spiders.
7. Homophobia (fear of or contempt for lesbian and gay men)
- dapat talaga silang matakot samin.
8. Photophobia (abnormal sensitivity to or fear of light)
- abnormal talaga ang mga taong ayaw ng ilaw. they would just like to be sulked in the sun.
9. Triskaidekaphobia (fear of the number 13)
- Dessa, matakot ka na daw kay 13. sige ka.
10. Commitment phobia (coined in a 1987 book, usually refers to fear of committing to a permanent relationship)
- nakakahiya. puro Fu-Bu lang ang gusto ng mga taong ito. gud luck.
Oh, isa ka ba sa mga taong merong listed sa taas? kung meron ka, eh ano ngayon? it would not make you a lesser person, right?
but always remember, the only thing to fear is fear itself.
