I have a deep fear of people and not in terms of social interaction. I'm very outgoing and am quite social (although awkward), but I have a constant fear that people have the intent to harm me. I'm perfectly fine going to the mall by myself, but I can't go for a bike ride by myself or go for a walk in the woods by myself in fear that someone might stab me or do something awful. What is this phobia called? Any ideas? It's very crippling and I just stay home all day when my boyfriend is at work ):
