astraphobia

GBK English to Swedish Social Sciences Psychology
Definition from Oxford English Dictionary:
A fear of lightning, or (more widely) of thunderstorms accompanied by lightning.
Example sentences:
In people with astraphobia, thunderstorms cause an extreme reaction that can be debilitating. For people with this phobia, these feelings may be overwhelming and feel insurmountable. (Healthline)
When people have had a traumatic experience linked to thunderstorms and lightning, they may be more prone to develop astraphobia. And if a person has witnessed someone getting hurt by thunder and lightning, this can contribute to the development of astraphobia. (psycom)
Cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques are often used in astraphobia treatment. You may be taught soothing messages to repeat during storms, replacing your negative self-talk. (Verywell Mind)
