Buffonophobia
Very common phobia in children but also suffered by some adults (both men and women). They tend to think that toads or frogs will grow and may eat them. When the affected person sees a toad or frog, they experience butterflies in their stomach and anxiety . To recover, it is necessary that the phobic’s confidence is restored and little by little they come to understand that their fears are unfounded.
In some cases it arises because of some trauma or unfounded fear by adults who already suffer from it.
