I'm claustrophobic and I'm notorious for freaking out in cars. I'm pretty good at controlling it and I don't usually start screaming or anything, but my heart races and sometimes I have trouble breathing. I also sleep with the window open year-round because otherwise the room can start to get stuffy and that can make me panic because it feels like the room is tiny, even though I know it's not.

I'm afraid of words which are derived from both Latin AND Greek (sociophobia - I'm looking at you).

Just one of my many, many pet peeves.
