Phobophobia is not a scientific term in the psychological and psychiatric literature. It is vaguely defined. In comparison, anxiety sensitivity is a more precisely defined construct with empirically validated measures and a good deal of evidence to support its construct validity.
The term panphobia was first coined by Théodule-Armand Ribot in his 1911 work The Psychology of the Emotions. [2] He defined it as "a state in which a patient fears everything or nothing, where anxiety, instead of being riveted on one object, floats as in a dream, and only becomes fixed for an instant at a time, passing from one object to another, as circumstances may determine."
