| We all deal with
fears and phobias at some time or another in our lives. Some
fears such as death or danger are important to our survival as
human beings and are very necessary. Others such as the fear of
animals usually has its roots in an actual similar event. Once a
fear interferes with a persons ability to rationally cope with
their environment, it then becomes a phobia.
Here is a more detailed distinction between a
fear and a phobia:
 | A Fear is an emotion of varying intensity
aroused by a recognised and logical threat and involving the
flight/fight response. It aroused a feeling of unpleasant
tension and a strong impulse to escape as well as certain
physiological changes.
|
| A Phobia is an excessive, unrealistic
and/or illogical or uncontrollable fear elicited by an object,
situation, or activity. It usually involves strong
physiological and emotional responses. |
Hypnotherapy has proven to be extremely
effective in either controlling fears and phobias or eliminating
them entirely.
