Placego

The act of doing a task that's already been completed because one doesn't believe it has until they themselves have done it.

"Even though the elevator button is obviously pressed, that guy still presses it because he doesn't trust it like it's a placego."

Revertigo

The dizzying feeling people get that are so afraid of heights that they can't even look up at the side of a tall building.

"He's so afraid of heights that if he looks up at a building he gets revertigo."
