Treatment of phobia
Treatment of phobia:
– Phobias are highly treatable, and
people who have them are nearly
always aware of their disorder.
This helps diagnosis a great
deal.Speaking to a psychologist or
psychiatrist is a useful first step in
treating a phobia that has already
been identified.
Therapies:
– Cognitive behavioral therapy
(CBT)involves exposure combined
with other techniques to learn ways to
view with the feared object or
situation differently. CBT emphasizes
learning to develop a sense of mastery
and confidence with your thoughts and
feelings rather than feeling
overwhelmed by them.
– Exposure therapy focuses on
changing your response to the object or
situation that you fear. Gradual,
repeated exposure to the source of your
specific phobia and the related
thoughts, feelings and sensations may
help you learn to manage your anxiety.
Other treatment options :
– Physical activity and exercise to
manage anxiety
Medications:
– Beta blockers can help reduce the
physical signs of anxiety that can
accompany a phobia.
– Sedatives. Medications called
benzodiazepines help you relax by
reducing the amount of anxiety you
feel. It should be avoided if you have a
history of alcohol or drug dependence
