My family was talking about me being scared of worms, and then my dads girlfriend said to my cousin to find a worm because i really love them, saying it sarcastically. So he went and found a fake fishing worm. He came back and said hey look, and he had the worm right in front of my face, I WIGGED OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So i was just wondering if there was a type of phobia for that.??

Scoleciphobia- Fear of worms.
Scoleciphobia- Fear of worms
There can be a phobia for anything. I’m pretty phobic about snakes. I get tears in my eyes when I see one close to me and I almost can’t make myself touch even a dead one. The only worm I can stand is an earth worm…the big fat juicy ones are scaaaary.
