Necrophobia

Necrophobia is the irrational fear of corpses, not just those of people but animals as well. Also included in this fear are the people, objects and ceremonies associated with death such as undertakers, morticians, coffins, tombstones, cemeteries and funerals. In a another way necrophobia could also be used to mean a fear of the dead by a cultural group, that their spirits will return to haunt the living, causing them harm in some way.

In some cultures necrophobia would be totally alien as the dead are welcome among the living.

Nemophilia

Nemophilia is the love of spending time in forests or woodland, particularly at night; going camping in woodland could probably be considered to be the equivalent of sex, possibly this is what John Denver meant when he wrote Annie’s Song. It does, however, make you wonder what woodland survival training, as practised by the armed forces, would equate to.

No Malcolm, people who practise Nemophilia should not be arrested and jailed.

Nomophobic

The fear of being out of mobile phone contact. The term is an abbreviation for "no-mobile-phone phobia". It causes physical side effects such as panic attack, shortness of breath, dizziness, trembling, sweating, accelerated heart rate, chest pain and nausea.

SecurEnvoy's study found that 70% of female respondents fear losing their phones, compared with 61% of male respondents. However, men are more likely to have two phones than women, which may account for that discrepancy.

People 18-24 tend to be the most nomophobic (77%), followed by people aged 25-34 (68%). The third most nomophobic group is 55 and older.

Oh no, I can't find my cellphone ANYWHERE and I'm nomophobic - what if someone calls for an emergency, what if someone stole my phone? I'm panicking, help!!
