Common
Phobias
There
are some phobias that are quite common, such as flying, snakes, public
speaking, birds and spiders.
Phobias
can be devastating for the sufferer, and also for their family. The
Limbic system is the system that links emotions and sensory information
(think the 5 senses of sight, smell, sound, touch and taste), and
triggers recognition patterns. Ever noticed that when you bought
your car, it seemed like everyone else on the road had one the same as
yours? Just as we become attuned to easily recognise objects, we
also become attuned to potential indicators of stressful occurrences.
When someone has had a bad
experience, an emotional response can be anchored to particular
memories, or the thought of future recurrences can also hold that same emotional charge.
(Triggers or anchors are those things that set someone's phobia off, so
that a panic attack or anxiety occurs.) Once the person begins to
worry anxiously about their response, the response becomes even further
embedded and more difficult to remove.
The
subconscious seems to make a limiting decision that it can't deal with
these things and so, the mere thought of them is often enough to cause a
panic attack.
My
approach is to use Timeline Processes, and NLP techniques, along with
stress management to keep day-to-day stressors down to a minimum, and
this works very well.
