What is the correct name for the fear of someone close to you dying?

I need to know what the proper name for the phobia of losing someone close to you. I am writing a speech about it.





Thanks for your help.

What is the correct name for the fear of someone close to you dying?
The only thing I could find is


Thanatophobia or Thantophobia- Fear of death or dying.


You could say, "I am very Thantophobic with people I am close to." I think that sounds pretty okay.
Reply:neurosis/ fear of death
