POPSWhat Are You Afraid Of? An interesting list and I picked out those I found THE most interesting to me... Funny that there are 4 or 5 words that designate Fear of Cats but only one for Fear of Snakes! Several definitions are like that with the "One Offs" being the more interesting to me... We all fear something. No one is 100% fearless. I, myself, fear someone hurting others and even up til a certain age, I feared clowns... My biggest fear is Demophobia, fear of crowds. I do not adjust well in front of strangers and at times I have to go inside myself deep to layer a certain sense of removal from strangers and crowds.. It is lumped under Social Anxiety by the Psychiatrists and it is... Yet, once I get to know you, good luck getting me to shut up! Enjoy. Though it does not say, I do not believe this list is all-inclusive.

POPSFirst 'placebo gene' discovered 
To see if there were genetic differences between responders and non-responders, Furmark screened them for a variant of the gene for tryptophan hydroxylase-2, which makes the brain chemical, serotonin. Previous studies suggested that people with two copies of a particular "G" variant are less anxious in standard "fear" tests. Sure enough 8 of the 10 responders had two copies, while none of the non-responders did (Journal of Neuroscience (DOI: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.2534-08.2008). Furmark believes the effect of the gene may extend to other conditions where the amygdala is involved, such as phobias, pain disorders and even depression. However, he cautions that only further studies will reveal whether the gene influences the placebo effect more generally. Echoing Furmark's caution is Fabrizio Benedetti of the University of Turin, Italy. "We know that there's not a single placebo effect but many." Some may work through genetics, he adds, others through the expectation of a reward.
