Phobias, fears and dislikes: What’s the difference?

I hear a lot of talk about people with phobias. I often hear people say things like ‘I have a phobia about’ … flying, or spiders or beards or anything else you care to mention. I have just added an article to our Articles and Notes section of the website called:

Overcoming Fear: What is and what isn’t a phobia. Eating peanut butter and the odd case of the spotless garage.

The article looks at the difference between a fear, a dislike and a phobia. It is quite revieling about what people think are phobias and what phobias actually are. Mostly when people use the word phobia they mean something else.
