Question: What is the best way to get over a phobia!?
I can't afford hypnotherapy or anything like that, so I'm looking for ideas of things I could do by myself to help me get over this!. Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
i have a phobia too and i have been seeing a therapist, but she has given me sheets and relaxation tapes that i look over everyday, not JUST in the situations that trigger the phobia, because chances are you aren't going to want to sit down and concentrate when you are terrified!. right!?

so download some relaxation tapes or print off sheets and follow them through everyday for 10-15 mins, they may seem boring at first but they really help in the long run!. promise!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Gradually expose yourself to this thing that makes you afraid over months!. Let the exposure time be very brief at first so that you can always control when the exposure ends!. Then gradually increase the time of exposure until your fear is conquered!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go to the library, there's plenty of self help books on phobiasWww@Answer-Health@Com
