Heliophobia is a phobia in which the sufferer is afraid of sunlight. People have it for a number of different reasons. Some people have it because of traumatic experiences with sunburns or cancer, scared they will get bad sunburns or skin cancer. Some have it because they are scared of the sun crashing into Earth. I, myself, have the phobia because of the second reason.

For heliophobes, they LOVE cloudy days, due to no sun. Some hardly go out, and others don't go out at all. It differs.
My best friend has heliophobia. I'm worried for her but she's making a recovery. I wish her the best.
