What is it called when you get uncontrollably panicky when someone tries to take a picture?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Camera shy: Photophobia - simple fear of being photographed - can be one of the reasons people dread picture taking. Scopophobia is a pathological fear of drawing attention to oneself or being looked at - often learned from public ridicule in childhood. Social phobia ((7% of population) - fear of being embarrassed in public - can lead to avoidance of meeting strangers and overall discomfort socially.
