Did you know that …
Phobias are the single most common mental disorder.
All three types of phobia, social, agoraphobia and specific are likely to affect between 5 and 10 people in every 100.
Phobia statistics suggest that roughly twice as many women as men suffer specific phobia though about equal numbers of women and men have social phobia.
Only about 20% of specific phobias disappear on their own for an adult.
