David Barlow (1988) called "false alarms" to the phobic responses that occur without there being threatening external stimuli, as in tripphobia. Unlike most phobic stimuli (elements that produce pathological fear), those that induce the tripphobia in general can not be considered dangerous or threatening. People who experience this phenomenon say that they feel disgust and discomfort when seeing images like these, and the greater the contrast between their elements, the more unpleasant it is to observe them. What tripphobic images have in common is the irregular or asymmetric configuration of the elements that compose them. Objects created by people can also generate a similar reaction examples are sponges, aerated chocolate and soap bubbles.
PATHOLOGICAL FEAR OF STORMS SKIN
Normally, the tripophobia is related to organic elements found in nature, such as the seeds of the lotus flower, honeycombs, skin pores, cells, mold, coral or pumice. More generally, it refers to the anxiety caused by repetitive patterns, mainly small agglomerated holes, but also of lumps, circles or rectangles. The term is very recent and it is even believed that it was coined in an Internet forum.
The word "tripphobia" literally means "fear of holes" in Greek. In fact, it is a case especially known among rare phobias because it has become a true Internet phenomenon. Tripophobia is an example of fear irrational to which an innate origin is usually attributed. In case of not being able to escape from what produces fear the person with phobia suffers intense anxiety and discomfort, even though he knows that they are irrational and disproportionate in relation to real danger. Phobias are irrational and persistent fears to objects, living beings or situations that provoke an intense desire to flee from them.
