Phobias aren't uncommon, and while yours isn't yet listed in the DSM-IV, it probably should be. It's called trypophobia, but be forewarned: if you Google it, you'll see a lot of pictures describing the phobia that you might find traumatic.
Your phobia seems more severe than most, though, if it makes you cry or be unable to go about your usual business. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help with anxiety disorders and phobias. You can also try desensitizing yourself.
Is it normal that I have a phobia of holes?
