Why this word is great
MNEMOPHOBIA — [Noun] The fear of one's own memories. From the Greek mnēmē ("memory") + -phobia ("fear"). Unlike "athazagoraphobia" (the fear of forgetting or being forgotten) or "neophobia" (the fear of new experiences), mnemophobia is the dread of what has already happened. It is the flinch at the scent of a long-discarded perfume, the involuntary stiffening at the opening bars of a once-beloved song, or the way certain rooms—perfectly ordinary—become uninhabitable because of what unfolded there. The mind, that cruel archivist, keeps what we beg it to lose.
