A derivative of The Fear it may be encountrered after only a short time in the Belgian capital of Brussels.
Studies show that The Brussels Fear may be caused by the increased alcohol content of Belgian Beer. Conflicting studies have found that the true source of The Brussels Fear is the general sense of loathing one gets from being in Brussels.
The Brussels Fear is made worse by the local population's refusal to assist you with even the most basic of tasks, generally accompanied by the phrase 'It is not possible'.
The only known cure for The Brussels Fear is leaving Belgium however the effects of this illness can be felt for many days/lifetimes after.

The best feeling in the world is when the plane/eurostar starts moving and you know the worst is behind you. You then shake violently when you realise you still have the Brussels Fear.
