QUESTION ABOUT PHOBIA: - Hello! Please tell me how difficult it is to treat claustrophobia, knowing myself and how deep my panic fear of closed spaces is, it seems to me very difficult, but I no longer have the strength to be constantly on the alert and live with this internal anxiety. Please tell me what is possible, what treatment to apply and what are the chances of coping with this? Thank you for your answer! ANSWER: - Good afternoon! The term treatment does not apply to me, I am not a doctor. If we talk about psychotherapy, then each case is unique, sometimes phobias and panic attacks can go away in 15 minutes, sometimes several sessions or meetings are required. There are different types of fears, and depending on the reasons, they have some features that are taken into account in the work. There are highly effective techniques for working with the unconscious for the treatment of phobias and fears. Techniques allow you to find reasons, carry out deep transformations, releasing the energy of conflict to freedom for development, and allow you to harmonize your personality. Of course, I don’t know what the cause of your phobia is. And the work is carried out with the cause and internal conflict, in addition to resistance and secondary benefits, which can greatly slow down the process. At the same time, sometimes the problem has a strong benefit that is difficult for a person to refuse, and the client does not complete the therapy, stopping just just before completion. At the moment when it becomes especially difficult, the final “battle” occurs. I don’t know how high your level of awareness and self-reflection is... how high your level of readiness is. I don’t know how many sessions you will need personally. However, in general, from 20 minutes to about 3-5 sessions solve the problem. All ongoing transformation processes last several months. In summary, I note that the effectiveness of getting rid of a phobia does not depend on what a person is afraid of - elevators, choking and dying, killing his children, open spaces or the dentist. Effectiveness depends primarily on the desire and readiness of the client, as well as on the desire and readiness of the therapist..
