How to get over Claustrophobia?!
Question: How to get over Claustrophobia!?
Can someone that used to be claustrophobic please tell me how they got over their fear!. I can't go in lifts, i can't lock myself in most rooms, i am limited to some rides when i go on holiday, all because i got locked in my garage by accident when i was younger, and didn't get out for 45 minutes!.

You just have to slowly work yourself up to get over it!. I used to not lock anything either and used to have to leave doors open!.!.!. because of a fire in our house once!. I had locked my bedroom door that night and got scared that I couldn't open it in time to get out!. Very minor fire, house was fine!.
Just try it for a couple of minutes everyday!. I wouldn't start out with a small room!. Try a larger room, walk into it, check out your surroundings, mentally say "There is nothing in this room I am afraid of!. Nothing in here can hurt me!. There's only my furniture (and whatever else)"!. Then remember some good times you had in that room, or a nice story about something in that room!. Then as you are still having good thoughts about that room!.!.!. close the door!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

From what I hear it's largely dependent on how serious the problem is!. If you have a moderate case then you can gradually desensitize yourself!. If you have a severe case then I think therapy is the best option!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
but a box over your head and cut eyes holes out if that doesn't work I suggest you major in something with a "large field" of studyWww@Answer-Health@Com
