Fear is a natural human emotion that serves a purpose, but excessive and persistent fear interfering with daily life can be classified as a phobia.
Phobias can trigger flight-or-fight responses, leading to emotional and physical distress like increased heart rate, sweating, and feelings of impending doom.
The signs and symptoms of irrational fears include increased heart rate, sweating, nausea, avoidance behaviors, and feelings of shame.
Various factors, including genetic predisposition, contribute to the development of intense fear and irrational phobias according to some psychologists.
