Espressophobia (from English “espresso”, from Italian) is the fear of the Sabrina Carpenter song “Espresso”. The fight-or-flight response is activated for sufferers of this phobia, with feelings ranging from wanting to run and hide, discomfort, or downright anger.
Causes[]
The most likely cause of Espressophobia is hearing the song too often on social media platforms, during public events, and on the radio when in the car.
Signs[]
- Wanting to punch the device playing the song
- Wanting to turn the music off when you hear it
- Covering your and your loved ones’ ears when it plays
- Screaming over the song to drown out the noise
