Is there a name for a phobia of silence?
The fact that you don't know when a noise will startle you. The anticipation of listening to something spontaneous is what could cause the fear of silence.

Is there a phobia of pine cones?
Yes there is. I am! I'm not the only one, I have read 4 other stories about people having phobias and know of a friend of a friend who has it. From what has been researched on my behalf (through fear of any images popping up) it is yet to be named. From my personal experience my parents have told me that ever since the age of two I have had what we now know a phobia of them. Like other phobias, looking at one and/or the sound of them together makes me feel sick, makes me shiver and makes me feel uncomfortable. The last time one touched me I was hysterical. I hyperventialted, cried uncontrollably, my nose bled, I thought I was going to be sick and my mother had to keep washing my back (where it touched me) over and over again until it felt that any traces had been wiped off -my skin was red raw. I have woken up crying from when I've had nightmares about them.

What is the fear of crowded places?
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.
Athazagoraphobia is defined as the fear of forgetting, being ignored, or generally anything dealing with the idea of forgetfulness. The definition can be extended to depression, anger, or deliberate isolation caused by one being forgotten, or dealing with death (thus being forgotten by those who have passed away).

How do you get over your fears of flying?
Hi! there is actually a product called ear planes that helps eliminate the pressure felt in the ears during flying. (depending on where you are in the world you may not be able to get these, im actually in Australia) they are a really good product. Cold and flu tablets are really good for the pressure experienced in the ears during flying. Tablets containing pseudoephidrine hydrochloride are probably the best ones to go with.(60mg of it would be good) Chewing gum is also another alternative if you havn't heard of it. Hopefully these remedies will help with your fear of flying and hopefully you will be able to fly on planes...hope this answered your question! =)
