What is cherophobia?

Puritanism is said to be the fear that someone else may be happy.

what a terrible thing...there are enough crabby people as it is without some of them actually being sick...

Mother in law finally has a diagnosis

Ian Swindale We dogs enjoy all phases of our life.

Good heavens they must lead a very weird life

Was this even reviewed - a very short answer with little explanation

I thought it was fear of Cheerios.

Say cheerio to Cherophobia

The grinch and 0scar the grouch, suffered from this.

I thought it was an aversion to Sonny Bono's former wife!

Patrick McWilliams, Puritanism is a "my way or the highway" belief in God which is why it went the way of the Dodo!...Whatever church you attend should be SCRIPTURAL & speak to you! If it's not Scriptural it's a waste of time & if it doesn't speak to you you'll lose interest!...THOSE are my criteria for choosing a church!

Irma Rivera, I agree When something good happens I always feel like the reason is because something bad is coming. Maybe I have this phobia but it never disappoints so maybe it's not a fear at all. I take it more karma can't be happy cause bad things happen

Sounds like my first wife...

Seems like the whole world is suffering from that these days

I had no idea that people actually prefer misery, wow! I thought it was the fear of cherries that I love dearly..yummy. I going to have some right now.

Ray Reason, being happy is wonderful even if it ends next week. If not for happiness how would we ever know sadness. The old saying better to have loved than not too for the joy you would never know if you didn't bother to be happy or in love..

Ian Swindale, I feel sorry for them

Ilias Tsiabardas, not to me never heard of it

Kodi06, scared its going to end I guess. Myself even if its going to end I'll take happy for a bit

I think I may have a mild form of it, at least an aversion to people who say "cheer up, it may never happen"!
