Trypophobia意思

Trypophobia is a fear of clusters of small holes or bumps. It is a relatively recent term, and while it is not officially recognized as a phobia in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), many people report feeling intense anxiety or disgust when exposed to images or objects that feature patterns of holes or bumps.

The exact cause of trypophobia is not well understood, but it is thought to be linked to evolutionary fears, such as a fear of infectious diseases or dangerous animals. Some researchers believe that the pattern of holes or bumps may trigger an automatic response in the brain that is associated with danger, leading to feelings of fear or disgust.
