It's the fear of time, characterised by panic, anxiety, and claustrophobia. Also known as prison neurosis, it's perhaps the most common anxiety disorder in prison inmates.

Sooner or later, almost all prisoners suffer from chronophobia to some degree and become terrified by the duration of their sentence and the passage of time.
