What is Jellophobia?


1.

Fear of gelatin. The concept of jellophobia synthesizes an instinctual feeling and offers a potential solution to a conundrum: fear and acceptance.

On the other hand it implies cowardice; giving up the fight.

There is peace with oneself, with one's faith.

There is beauty in the end of struggle.

The mind and the soul are taken over by the unfathomable, transparent entity.

The element of chronic illness also comes into play.
