-The
fear of spending the rest of your life in Syria.
-Due to the last eight years of decadence, corruption and destruction during the Syrian civil
war. Syrian millennials have developed a unique kind of mass-
anxiety, which has gradually developed to a new phobia category in which is today defined as SyriaPhobia.
It is specifically explained as they (Syrian youth) are afraid of spending the rest of their life in a country drown in its shit.
General symptoms includes an intense
anxiety and
fear of not being able to leave Syria, and start a better life somewhere else, or being forced to return for those who have already left.
-Another interesting symptom which have been observed among thousands of Syrian, especially those who have managed to leave Syria, which is a
night dream where they see themselves in Syria again. These dreams were described as "really disturbing, scary and terrible nightmares".
