We’ve become so dependent on our smartphones that it was only a matter of time.
我們過度依賴智慧型手機，遲早會變得畏懼它們。
Does the sound of a ringing telephone give you the shakes? If so, don’t worry, you’re not alone. You might simply suffer from a condition called “telephobia” the fear of talking on the phone.
電話來電鈴聲會讓你皮皮挫嗎？如果真是這樣，別擔心，你並不是唯一這樣的人。你可能只是罹患了稱作「電話恐懼症」的病，它是種害怕講電話的症狀。
These days, many people avoid talking on the phone. We’re so used to texting and sending direct messages that speaking on the phone has become uncomfortable. For some, this fear becomes so serious that it’s actually a phobia. Knowing that someone is going to call them sparksintense anxiety. They will then try to figure out any way possible to avoid taking the call.
現今很多人逃避講電話。我們已過於習慣發簡訊和直接傳訊息，以致在講電話時變得不自在。這種恐懼對某些人來說嚴重到竟然演變成了一種恐懼症。知道有人要打電話給他們會引發強烈的焦慮感。這些人會盡可能找出所有可以躲避接電話的方法。
Telephobia could be caused by a bad experience in the past, such as getting terrible news via the phone. If you suffer from it, know that there is help. Treatment usually involves taking small steps, like calling a store to ask what time it closes. Later, a sufferer might call a restaurant to inquire about the daily specials. Over time, the patient learns that using the phone need not be a terrifying experience. After all, no one should have to live in fear of their phone.
電話恐懼症可能是由於過去不好的經驗所造成，像是從電話裡得知噩耗。假如你曾受過這種苦，其實可以詢求協助。治療方法通常是一步步慢慢來，像是打電話到某店家問他們何時打烊。患者隨後也許可以打到餐廳詢問他們的每日特餐。這些患者久而久之就會了解使用電話未必是種可怕的經歷。畢竟，沒有人該活在害怕自己手機的恐懼之中。
