What is Christougenniatikophobia?

in
Some people are afraid of snakes, others are afraid of clowns. But people suffering from christougenniatikophobia are afraid of Christmas. A specific type of heortophobia (fear of holidays), the word stems from Greek, meaning “Christ-birth-related-fear.” It is often rooted in childhood trauma, financial stress, or negative associations with traditions like Santa or family gatherings, causing symptoms like anxiety, dread, and physical distress, but it can be managed with therapies like hypnosis or talk therapy.
