Nomophobia is a condition that means the fear of being out of cell phone contact. Yes, this really is a real mental condition, which was coined by a British researcher in 2008. A 2012 study has found that since 2008 the amount of individuals who fear being without a cell phone has grown from 53% to 66%. And, guess what? Since this is a mental condition, the next natural progression for those individuals who suffer from this disorder is to seek permanent disability from Uncle Sam.
