Whats your phobia!? Just think it would be interesting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Phobias are natural fears!. The ones that have the effect that you are descibing are just a little out of hand in your brain!. Phobias derive typically from things that can harm us!. Snakes, the dark, heights, lightning, etc!. These things all have the ability to harm us, and those with phobias just have a limited ability to suppres that fear!. Overcoming them is hard!. Sometimes only through therapy, hypnosis, or yes!. !. !. !. even DIRECT interaction with that you fear can help!. Some people are beyond help!. That doesn't make you a freak or anything, any more than it makes somebody a freak if they LOVE to be in high places, or love the dark!. Just different!. Without differences the world would be a boring place!.Www@QuestionHome@Com I suffered from what I thought was a fear of crowds for 38 years!. I went to a hypnotherapist for a completely unrelated reason but when he discovered my fear of crowds he offered to help me with that too!. While hypnotized he discovered my reason for my fear wasn't of crowds but of being touched!. Digging even further into my subconscious, he found the reason for that phobia: My uncle had molested me from the time I was 5 until I was 11!. He died when I was 21 and it was shortly after that the panic attacks started when I would be out in a crowd!. My uncle's death triggered me having been inappropriately touched but it did not manifest itself until his death!. This just happened a few months ago, but i am now able to go out and shop on Saturdays at stores, in heavy crowds, and it doesn't bother me at all!. It's amazing what a phobia can do to You--and the cause of it! But the relief from those panic attacks is wonderful!. Phobias CAN be overcome!. Please see a licensed hypnotherapist if you have one and need help in overcoming it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com It kind of depends on the person and the phobia!. Some phobias are from something someone experienced in their life (i!.e!. being afraid of a certain type of food because that food has caused food poisoning)!. Some are from upbringing (i!.e!. being afraid of Asians because of something parents have said)!. Some are just survival (the fear of enclosed spaces can come from this)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com It's a past or sometimes present life memory!. We are here to change all fear to love!. That's the spiritual reason, psyche means soul!. I can't think of any limiting phobias I have, but there is still fear I have to resolveWww@QuestionHome@Com |
