Each of us is afraid of something, fears something. But on the other hand, fear is a natural process in the human body. He who is not afraid has no soul.
The word "phobia" is very popular, many people think that phobia is fear. But in fact, fear is a natural fear of what can hurt and what is actually dangerous, this includes fire, water, height. And a phobia is fear that is present in the subconscious of a person and cannot be influenced.
The difference between phobia and fear can be seen in an example. A person is afraid of heights, just because this fear does not arise, there was a negative experience, fell from something and this person will have a fear of heights, maybe a fear of an airplane that he may also fall. Such people feel danger at the sight of an airplane and prefer to travel, for example, by train or bus.
There are a lot of phobias, how many different animals and insects, natural forces, actions, intimate life, health status, as well as objects.
The symptoms of a phobia are very diverse, but for most people there are similar ones, such as: increased heart rate, sweating, trembling in the body, fear, it becomes difficult to breathe, fear of dying from a phobia, cold to chills or hot, there is nausea or pain in any part of the body. In a situation where the subject of a phobia is present, a person cannot control his fear.
On the one hand, it is very simple to cure a phobia, but on the other it is very hard work. To do this, a person must face a phobic situation very often and be in it until he realizes that it does not cause any harm.
