I need a good word for my phobia. I am afraid of being afraid of things. Ideas?

Update:

OK, since I now realize this is a real phobia, let's try creating a funny word for the fear of being afraid of things.

    The "funny" word you're looking for here is schizophrenia. Maybe you'll realise that when you're next tucked up in the corner of your room under your desk, swaying back and forth and beating yourself in the head to try and stop the voices from telling you to expose yourself to the local women's wheelchair basketball team. I pity you, and yet you disgust me with all your morbid psychoses and substandard hygiene levels. You see the dilemma I find myself in.

    In no way is this suppost to be rude...but ....sounds like you should just call it " Paranoia."

    If your not all for that, just follow the other answers " Afraidophobia."

    Is this some sort of deliberate attempt to get my brain stuck in a sort of infinite loop?
