"The Phobic to Phobic" phone

Weird Objects for Weird Users? addresses the issue of autophobia, an abnormal and persistent fear of being alone.

One of the objects, The Phobic to Phobic has been designed to dialogue in total anonymity with people who suffer from the same phobia, removing any fear to be judged and feel ashamed.

It works via the Autophobia society. When a user picks up the phone, he or she is randomly connected to other agoraphobics belonging to the same society, they can talk and feel the other person's movement through the surface of the phone.
