Automysophobia

Automysophobia is not a fear of cars (I thought the same thing too) very misleading I must say. So if it's not a fear of cars what is it?

Automysophobia is actually a fear of being physically dirty. Now why isn't it called dirtysmyophobia I do not know.

Scared you may have Automysophobia? Well the list of symptoms include but not limited to are:

• Dizziness
• Dry mouth
• Nausea
• Shaking
  
• Foggy thinking
• Heart palpitations
• Breathlessness

Underlying emotional and psychological issues are too blame here, so it is best if you suspect you have Automysophobia to seek help from a certified psychologist.
