Proneophobia sounds more like fear of lying down, lol!
But how about these? Agorophobia (open spaces) Claustrophobia (enclosed spaces) Hydrophobia (water) Arachnophobia (spiders) Aviatopophobia (flying) Glossophobia (speaking in public) Demophobia (crowds) Acrophobia (heights) Nyctophobia (darkness) Thanatophobia (death or dying) Odontophobia (dentists) Aichmophobia (needles) ------------------ |
