What are the symptoms of ephebiphobia?

People with phobias, such as ephebiphobia, often recognize that their fear is irrational. But this doesn’t make it easy to control their physical reactions when something triggers the fear.

People with a fear of teenagers may have a reaction while in a place filled with adolescents, seeing images of teenagers or even just thinking about teens.

Symptoms may include:

• Dizziness.
• Dry mouth.
• Extreme feeling of dread or terror.
• Nausea and/or diarrhea.
• Profuse sweating.
• Rapid breathing and heart rate.
• Shaking or trembling.
