Lilapsophobia


Lilapsophobia is the fear of tornadoes or hurricanes. It is a more severe form of astrophobia, which is the fear of thunder and lightning. This phobia is somewhat common, although rarer than astrophobia. Some people have lilapsophobia because of previouse experiences with tornadoes or bad storms. Maybe they got hurt or a family member was injured durring the storm, or your house was destroyed. Some symptoms of lilapsophobia is constantly checking the weather or watching the weather channel to see if storms are coming. Another symptom of lilapsophobia is not going outside when there is a storm, and when a storm hits, you may display strange behavior.
