Maskophobia 

The fear of wearing a face mask—when some people become mentally disturbed or paranoid of seeing their and others’ faces covered.

Guesstimate how many people globally suffer from maskophobia, who would find it hard to explain to the authorities why their psychological condition calls for a mask exemption during this pandemic.

Maramophobia 

The fear of doing something, saying something or reacting in some way that would result in you losing a special one of a kind person. This phobia does not mean that you are exactly scared *of* her (even if she is capable of being extremely terrifying at times) rather this phobia is about being scared of losing her because you know things would suck a bit if you did

I had a message typed out and everything... but my Maramophobia kicked in and I spent a solid 12 minutes debating whether or not to press send

I had to walk past a group of cat-calling malay guys and I could literally feel my Mamatophobia kicking in
