What is the Phobia of seals called?
Seal Phobia: As shadow guide/totem: The shadow totem is the animal we often fear irrationally, that teaches us things about ourselves that are profound and difficult to confront. Often the traits we fear most within the shadow totem, are the traits that we dislike in ourselves. We must scrutinise why this is, and learn how to work with them. - People who fear seals, often fear relationships and energy that is different to theirs. They are often unwilling or unable to confront problems in their relationship, and unwilling to understand how these could be a strength in the future or in the present. - People with seal phobia may constantly make themselves into a victim because of what they lack in life. They make their lives hard and cumbersome, and deliberately blind themselves to their fluidity and ability to make their lives more productive and streamlined. That is the best that I can come up with. L8r

What do you call the fear of the unknown?
"Hi Vile Maverick!" Xenophobia denotes a phobic attitude toward strangers OR OF THE UNKNOWN. It comes from the Greek words ξένος (xenos), meaning "foreigner," "stranger," and φόβος (phobos), meaning "fear." The term is typically used to describe fear or dislike of foreigners or in general of people different from one's self. For example, racism is sometimes described as a form of xenophobia, but in most cases racism has nothing to do with a real phobia. Xenophobia implies a belief, accurate or not, that the target is in some way foreign. Prejudice against women cannot be considered xenophobic in this sense, except in the limited case of all-male clubs or institutions. The term xenophilia is used for the opposite behavior, attraction to or love for foreign persons. Xenophobia may be a natural tendency in humans, as such behaviour is common among other animals. [citation needed] The American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition ("DSM-IV") includes in its description of a phobia an "intense anxiety" which follows exposure to the "object of the phobia, either in real life or via imagination or video..." For xenophobia there are two main objects of the phobia. The first is a population group present within a society, which is not considered part of that society. Often they are recent immigrants, but xenophobia may be directed against a group which has been present for centuries. This form of xenophobia can elicit or facilitate hostile and violent reactions, such as mass expulsion of immigrants, or in the worst case, genocide. The second form of xenophobia is primarily cultural, and the objects of the phobia are cultural elements which are considered alien. All cultures are subject to external influences, but cultural xenophobia is often narrowly directed, for instance at foreign loan words in a national language. It rarely leads to aggression against persons, but can result in political campaigns for cultural or linguistic purification. Isolationism, a general aversion of foreign affairs, is not accurately described as xenophobia. Additionally, in the world of science fiction, xenophobia usually refers to a fear or hatred of extraterrestrial cultures or beings.
Is there a phobia for the fear of forgetting things?
I'm always scared I'm going to forget things like dreams, events, etc. I keep at least 5 journals of different categories to write everything I think I need to remember in the future. It takes up a lot of my time, and I prioritize my journals above school and social life. I'm not sure if I have an obsession or something, or if I just like to remember my life... help??

How do you measure fear and what do you measure it with?
To my way of thinking, attempting to “measure” my fear does nothing to alleviate it, in fact, the more you try to analyse it, the more involved you become with it, and I would think you want to be free of it.Sit and think about what you are afraid of. If you can answer that you are seriously on your way. If you can’t identify the source of your fears, then what you have got a hold of is good old panic.There is virtually nothing you are afraid of right now. All of your fears exist in the future, which is to say they don’t exist at all. This is because you have no control over the future, and you try to fill that void with catastrophes and problems and circumstances that seem really bad. I’m going to lose my job next week, I just know it. I’m going to come up short on the mortgage, my wife is going to divorce me, etc.“Whenever I’m up in my head worried about something in the future or something in the past that I can do nothing about right now, that’s called projection, and it’s a useless harmful exercise. Like I wrote earlier, right now there is nothing harmful going on in my life, but I can sure pile up things in the future to worry about. Not a single Goddamn thing I ever worried about ever came true the way I thought it wold. I am not a mentalist, I cannot predict the future.Anxiety, or fear, is just the pain I feel for something that hasn’t happened yet.Do something today, if there is anything to be done, to plan for the future. Arrange a meeting with your boss to clear the air, to see where you stand. Check with your mortgage company to see what needs to be done to salvage your home, And arrange for a marriage counselor, and go yourself if she won’t . Take action.Respect yourself enough to know that anxiety is the illusion that you are in control. Develop enough humility to recognize that you aren’t.Cordially, etc….
