carbophobia

An irrational fear of element 6 of the periodic table, from which all organic life is based. Promoted by such great bastions of scientific research such MTV, Current TV, and Al Gore.
Currently a source of great hysteria. Carbophobia has reached such levels its become its own religion. It rewards believers and punishes infidels and has its own apocalyptic end of the world scenario.

Often a substitute for deeper personal issues regarding the dislike of other human beings, their ability to warm themselves, cook, and transport themselves through the use of this element. and when faced with conflicting science, victims of carbophobia are prone to religious like reflexes and seek to punish disbelievers by excommunication and ridicule.

clausophobia

An anxiety disorder characterized by an irrational
fear of Santa Claus. The signs of clausophobia usually develop early in life during childhood. Signs of clausophobia include: automatically and compulsively looking for exits when sighting a fat bearded man in a red suit or feeling fearful on hearing Ho-ho-ho.

The most common type of treatment for clausophobia involves mental health counseling targeted to overcoming the fear and managing triggering situations.

Different types of strategies include:

* Relaxation and visualization techniques designed to calm the fear when in a clausophobic environment
* Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), an approach that involves learning to control the thoughts that occur when confronted with the fear-inducing situation in such a way as to change the reaction
* Relocating to Tehran
