Spectrophobia
Similar to Catoptrophobia (Cat-ope-tro-phobia) and Eisoptrophobia (Eye-sop-tro-phobia), Spectrophobia is one of the many different reasons a person might be scared to of mirrors. Spectrophobia is specifically used to describe a person's fear to look into a mirror and see something other then their own reflection such as a spirit, demon, or something not of the normal human world. Symptoms of this phobia could be trembling, shaking, faster breathing, increasing heartbeat, crying/screaming, sweating, or panic/anxiety attacks whenever looking into a mirror.

church hurt
church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
