The Megalofobia is panic felt by the people for the great things, but we are not referring to things that larger than are normal in size, such as airplanes, are objects in nature have a large, however Megalophobics would not be afraid of airplanes since that is the natural size that they present in their composition, fear actually occurs when objects that usually have any dimension whatever it is, are presented in a much larger size the usual a giant hamburger that appears on a billboard.

The intimidation that megalphobes may feel is reflected in external symptoms such as excessive sweating, tremors, dizziness and nausea. The fear they may feel for giant things also leads them to problems in society, because those who suffer from this phobia limit themselves to being near big things out of fear, although they do not affect or can harm the person.

Experts say that Megalophobia could be associated with inferiority complexes created by situations of insufficiency or need, in which as small people who had more or great things intimidated the affected, generating a fear for things that in some way they cannot possess for their size, cost or ability to access them. This fear, like many others, is solved by making the patient, through progressive therapy, face his fears, at the same time that he takes medication to counteract the physical symptoms if they are present.
