Feb 19, 2015 at 18:46 comment added Amith KK Even if Harry's greatest fear at that time was dementors how does that explain that what he feared was "fear itself"? Harry's boggart form had nothing to do with "fear itself" it was simply what Harry feared greatest. Won't everyone be fearing fear itself then?
Feb 19, 2015 at 18:32 comment added Nerrolken @phantom42 is right. Further evidence: Neville is terrified of Snape because Snape is his teacher and he's intimidating, but he obviously didn't fear Snape at all until coming to Hogwarts a few years eariler, and likely wouldn't fear him for the rest of his life. He's just the scariest thing in Neville's life at that moment.
Feb 19, 2015 at 18:24 comment added phantom42 I could be wrong, but it was my understanding that forms of boggarts were not permanent for an individual - that it was what they were most afraid of at that time. Given Harry's recent encounter with Dementors, that's likely what he was mostly afraid of right then.
