Glossophobia: Fear of public speaking
I have a presentation tomorrow and I've pretty much decided that I'd rather have a zero for a quiz grade than read my report to the class. I just can't do it. If the class isn't big like the one I have to speak for (there's like 23 other kids in my class) than I could maybe calm myself down. The other day I threw up in my mouth a little just thinking of going up and doing it. I was crying earlier thinking about doing it.
Autophobia: Fear of being alone.
Achluophobia: Fear of darkness.
These two sort of tie together. I'm more afraid if I'm alone in the dark. So I sleep with the TV on. If I sleep over a friend's house though I can sleep in the dark, but I'd still prefer to have a light on.
