There is probably no person who is completely unfamiliar with the feeling of fear. It is thanks to him that he manages to avoid dangers and preserve his well-being, and sometimes life. But, at the same time, fear inhibits development and impedes progress. Fear, which arises without any visible signs of danger, is constantly present in everyday life, prevents a person from adequately assessing the situation and can turn into a real phobia when the intervention of a psychiatrist may be required.
Instructions
Step 1
With unreasonable fears that arise from scratch, you need to fight right away, as soon as you begin to notice them behind you. Try to find out the nature of this feeling and find the "antidote" that will help overcome the feeling of fear.
Step 2
Identify the root cause of your fear by analyzing where it came from. It is human nature to fear the unknown. So, many people are afraid of dogs, simply because they have heard that they bite. Read the literature about dogs, and you will understand that danger does not threaten those who understand how to behave with a dog at all. This fear immediately disappears in those who decide to get a dog and begin to understand it.
Step 3
Defeat your fear with logic. Some people, for example, have a fear of flying - aerophobia. If you also have a feeling of fear about this, study the statistics. You will be surprised to realize that the percentage of deaths associated with plane crashes is negligible compared to car accidents. If you are not afraid to take risks and drive cars without even thinking about the danger, then why are you afraid to fly?
Step 4
Just try to get over your fear. Let you experience real horror, but close your eyes and step over yourself. You should know - for most people it was enough to take such a step only once. The fear went away immediately and forever.
Step 5
If you cannot overcome your fears with an effort of will, turn to reflexology. This is a technique of mechanical action on biologically active points associated with internal organs, including the brain. Using the massage of these points, you can have a direct impact on the organ in which your fear originated and lives. Remove your fears by acting on the he-gu point. It is located between the thumb and forefinger approximately in the middle, closer to the metacarpal bone. In your body, in the process of massaging this point, endorphins will begin to be produced, the effect of which on the body is similar to morphine. The feeling of fear will disappear. Such self-massage is especially effective in case of sudden panic attacks.
