Cherophobia is a condition where people have an aversion to happiness. The word 'chero' comes from the Greek word 'cheiro' which means I rejoice. Cherophobia refers to the fear of rejoicing and being happy. "Cherophobia is an irrational aversion to being happy. It can often develop in response to anxious thoughts associated with past trauma or learned in childhood that there is a connection between happiness and some bad event. As a result, a person suffering from cherophobia may believe that when something good happens, it will be followed by something bad," wrote therapist Caroline Rubenstein. Here are some symptoms of cherophobia. (Unsplash)
