Abstract

Md. Bokul Munshi

This phenomenon, known as Sakib phobia, is a recent phenomenon of mental illness that has received widespread attention because it affects a person›s emotional and social well-being. This academic article is designed to provide a qualitative and critical study of Sakibphobia using three cognitive domains: occupational functioning, social interactions, and conflict. This study provides a comprehensive review of the existing literature by examining the theoretical foundations, assumptions, and implications regarding the Sakibphobia model. Sakibphobia involves the fear of or rejection of people whom a person believes are superior to him or her in terms of success or achievement. From a psychological perspective, this means that there is an interaction between self-worth, comparison, and fear of inadequacy. This article explores the origins of Sakibphobia as a product of social expectations and norms of self-centeredness, achievement, and success, looking through the lens of functionalism. It explores the influence of social institutions in managing these expectations and examines the impact on an individual›s mental and general health.
