    I did some additional research on Ophthalmophobia and learned that it is not a fear of opening the eyes, but rather a fear of being stared at.

    Arachibutyrophobia is actually a fictional phobia, coined by Peter O'Donnell in a Modesty Blaise novel. I suspect zemmiphobia is fictional too, just another one of those Internet memes that people made up, though I won't discount the fact that some nutjobs out there have compelled themselves to believe they have it; people do some pretty stupid things to themselves.

    Phobophobia- Phobia of having a phobia (Don't think it too much, you'll get migraines and insomnia)
    Panophobia- Fear of everything (Don't think about this also, just pity the people who have it)

    Oh, God! I can’t believe that there are bizarre phobias existing today. You know, last year, my sister used to multitask while driving. I’m so mad every time she’s doing that, so I always asked her that I’ll be the one to drive our Ram 1500 from Dodge which dad bought from the car dealers at Edmonton. Then, one day, when she’s heading her school, she didn’t notice the car approaching her. Luckily she quickly gripped the brake. After that incident, she didn’t want to use her phone for almost 10 months. Today, her life backs to normal but she never dare to use phone or any unnecessary activities while driving.
