Yes: When a person becomes obsessed with any idea or item, snake/spider/ thunder/allergic reaction it is termed a phobia. If it begins to interfere with your life, it is reasonable to find a life coach/therapist/psychiatrist to help sort it out. Exploring your past history may reveal a trigger point you can realize & work past with help.
