Default Fear of telephone calls?

I think quite a few people are the same as me from what I can remember from other threads - I have this really irrational fear of the telephone. I don't know what it is about it, it just terrifies me to answer the phone or to make a phone call. Yet sometimes I'm totally fine with it - I think it's when I'm told "can you phone ___ in half an hour/___ will phone you in half an hour" that I start to panic about it, like pressure is building up... It's such a bizarre fear to have. In my last job (that I'm returning to next month) part of my job is to answer the phone and I'm totally fine with that because I'm expecting people to phone... but when I'm unexpectedly phoned or told to phone somewhere, it just sets me off into this sweaty nervous wreck! Anyone else?
