I am a student journalist with an interest in telecommunications. I enjoy talking on the phone. It takes me away from my reality and moves me into a different world!!! I have a lot of fun talking on the phone. Sometimes the phone makes communication easier. For example, it is simply easier to break bad news over the phone.
I have a good friend who is a phone-aphobic. I am interested in her fear that is more common than you would think!
Many people have different phobias. Having a phone phobia can be a disaster in today's culture. Making calls is a necessity. Everyone is attached to their cell phones, so they are always available. A cell phone in many cases can be a burden. You know the feeling of someone ignoring your call--it doesn't feel good. Everyday I witness someone sighing when their phone goes off because they don't want to answer. In situations such as these having a fear of the phone can actually be a positive because people don't expect you to answer or take it personally when you ignore their call.
