I'm 15. So far I have discovered that I have basophobia (fear of falling), atychiphobia (fear of failure), and a very odd one, Hnirshunphobia the fear of dirty dishes. Or, in my case, trying to clean those dishes. This kinda mixes with my atychiphobia where my fear stems from being scared that I'll do a bad job doing the dishes and get yelled at by my parents. Just looking at those disgusting things makes me immediately want to jump into my bed and hide under the covers. This fear has caused me to break 3 glasses, 2 plates, 1 chopstick, and have about 12 panic attacks. Yayyyyyyy....

Arachnophobia, fear of spiders. Even seeing them in images kills me inside. Sorry spiders, I just can’t. I live in Australia, and it’s common to see them. But they are seriously terrifying.
Katsaridaphobia, fear of cockroaches. I will explain my story. I once was using the bathroom in my grandparent’s home. Out from the roof, while I was on the toilet, a cockroach suddenly fell. That was not funny.
Trypanophobia, fear of needles. They’re just so sharp and scary. I’m fine looking at them in a super far distance. It just, is so damn scary when I get a shot. It also hurts for a few days.

Hippopotomonstrosiquipdaliaphobicphobia.
I am afraid of people afraid of long words
Also, who ever invented hippopotomonstrosiquipdaliaphobia was obviously mean; people afraid of long words had to say a long word to describe their phobia

I couldn’t find the actually phobia for this, only social anxiety, which I do not have, so fear of interacting with other people I don’t know.

Acrophobia, arachnophobia, and nyctophobia. And yes, nyctophobia is fear of the dark. I'm not afraid of the dark, I'm afraid of what might be in it.

I have claustrophobia (which is not the fear of small spaces - it is the fear of suffocation and it is often triggered by small spaces, but not wanting to walk into a closet is not claustrophobia). I am in therapy for it. I also have a fear of driving down a mountain or steep grade, losing control of the car and careening off the embankment.

Lepidopterophobia . As a school librarian, I will admit we have the worst collection of butterfly books b/c I won't buy them!!
Trypophobia. I hadn't hear of that before, but I have seen the pictures online of people with small holes in their skin. I couldn't look away but it sickened me at the same time. I don't mind other small holes, so for me it's just on skin.

I also have claustrophobia, thanatophobia, and patho/latrophobia. The fear of being confined in a small space, the fear of dying, and the fear[s] of doctors/disease, ever since my first 'test'. Thanks, covid-19.

Mail. I'm afraid of opening my mail. I have piles, bags, drawers, boxes. I love autopay! I have a strong aversion to cooking grease--spills, splatters, and on dishes/cookware.
