Agoraphobia? im pretty sure. One milder, but longer lasting and even more troublesome, difficult to eradicate and treat, version of this "phobia" can be described as "fear of overpopulation", which not necessarily refers to immediate physical menace or presence of crowds, but to the looming and permanent presence of such crowds competing for resources (air, water, natural environment), making them scarcer and more difficult to get such satisfiers, than they could be otherwise if no human overpopulation exists.

What is it called when you are scared of people?
I believe this is a mixture of 2 phobias, as opposed to a specific phobia, my opinion is that it is Claustrophobia (fear of closed spaces) and Demophobia(fear of crowds/mobs).I get this sort of thing when around people...it's as if they're in my bubble and I haven't consciously allowed them in, i.e. if they hug me as opposed to me hugging them - but I usually have bigger anxieties when it's toward my face. I get short of breath, and sometimes get hot flushes/perspiration (especially in places like Supermarkets and Shopping Centres [Malls]).As for tackling this sort of phobia/anxiety, I would go to a Doctor/GP and ask for a referral to the relevent specialist.Hope this helps.
