Hello:
Interesting! I have a book right here with the names of all phobias. I treat a lot of patients with some very bizarre phobias. Here you go:
1.Fear of deep dark water=aqualygophobia
2.Fear of needles=aichmophobia or belenophobia (both are correct nomenclature)
3.Fear of being shoved in an oven=not listed in my book, so you must have a unique phobia that is not published as of yet. We could coin a term based on the latin language and publish it. hehehe.
I am glad I was able to help you answer your questions. I read some of the other responses and they are incorrect. Like I said, I have a medical textbook on phobias so the info I am giving you is accurate.
I hope you can find a way to overcome your fears, however, it is not abnormal....everyone has a phobia of something. I am deathly afraid to fly, drowning, being burned alive and being eaten by velociraptors (even though they are extinct!)

For now, I could must say no. Blown calls will continually be a facet of the sport........the vast majority of clown calls honestly are not that dangerous, given that the umpire has to make the decision rapidly. There are just a couple in a given 12 months wherein it is very noticeable to the bare eye. Over a 162 sport season, the calls wil leven out, like Eric stated. However, I do consider replay will have to be used within the playoffs on whatever however balls and moves. That's surely a time whilst nobody wishes to win/lose a sport considering the fact that of a decision.

Fear of water is hydrophobia.

Fear of needles is belonephobia.

I'm pretty sure there's not one about being shoved in an oven, but if I had to guess it might be wickedwitchophobia.

I suppose that you need the names so that you can learn something about your phobias.I will try to tell you something that I know.What is the most important to you is to get rid of your phobias,of course.But how?First,you have to know that the fear of this certain things happened in your early youth(since you were a baby till you were 6 years old-aproximatly).How it happens-for example-you are a small child,you are taking walk with your mother and then suddenlly bird flies near your mother's head and she starts to scream;what happens in your mind-you start to believe that birds are something very dangerous and that you should be affraid of that(birds).Your mind is waiting for you to be strong enough to be able to fight against this "very scary thing"(birds).So,that's why this fear happens so suddenlly in your life when you are for example 20(or less)years old,but you don't know what cause this fear(phobia-in this case phobia of birds).So,you must know that you are not born with this phobias and that you probablly lived years of your life without it.So that means that you create phobias when you are very young(for example by seeing someone in some fear about this things that you are affraid of it now).So,now as grown up person you have to start to curing your phobia.Explain your inner little you that now you are old enough to protect yourself.Face the fear.Fear is just the mechanism that you create.Very important thing to know is(it sounds wierd but it's true) that fear is your friend-it wants to protect you from dangerous situations.Sometimes it's with good reason(for example if somebody wants to hit you,or hurt you in some way),but sometimes is without good reason(if you project it in your mind as a very dangerous situation or thing but actually is not).So then your fear wants to protect you from this thing or situation and tells you "Run!Save your life!This is life threating!"But actually this is not life threating situation and you have to show this to your fear.If you show your fear that you are swimming in the deep dark water and do it more and more times after a while your mind will accept this like this fear was false alarm and you will stop to be affraid.I know,it will be very tough,but succeed is guaranteed.I know so much about it but it is so hard to explain it in few sentences and also english is not my mother tongue so it is very hard to explain some things.I hope that I helped a little.
PHOBIA IS NATURAL REACTION OF YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS ON THE INFORMATIONS YOU SEND TO IT BY CONSCIOUS.CHANGE THE INFORMATIONS YOU SEND TO YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS!

Phobias, paranoia, or maybe anxiety just in general?
