  1. PHOBIA OF HOLES Before we learn “What is the phobia of holes”? Let's first understand what does the word phobia refer to, a phobia is an overwhelming fear in relation to an object, place, situation, animal or feeling. Phobic reaction appears when a person develops an unrealistic sense of danger regarding a situation. WHAT IS PHOBIA OF HOLES? Trypophobia is a term that is preferred to describe as phobia of holes which means the sufferer feels disgust while looking at patterns of holes or bumps, they cannot bear the sight of clusters of holes or objects that have many small holes tightly grouped together. People feel uneasy and uncomfortable, they may get panic attacks or may find difficulty in breathing for example sponges or lotus heads may cause discomfort in someone with this phobia. Phobia of holes is not officially recognised as the research and studies are limited and whatever research is available that is conflicted on whether or not it should be considered an official condition. The American Psychiatric Association’s “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual,” (DSM-5) doesn’t recognize trypophobia as an official phobia. More research is needed to understand the full scope of trypophobia and the causes of the condition.
