Anxieties, Phobias and Fears – What are they?

There are probably very few of us that do not have any anxiety, phobias or fears , even if it’s as simple as being a little fearful of spiders, or perhaps liking to sleep with a little light shining nearby as the dark is not comfortable.

Many such anxieties are manageable and the majority of us experience them at some point in our lives with little impact.

However, some people have anxieties, phobias and fears that limit their opportunities in life: the person with a fear of flying may find being in a plane uncomfortable, however someone with a more serious anxiety of flying may completely avoid boarding, or perhaps even seeing, an aeroplane; equally, someone with a fear of open spaces may avoid large parks, fields and sports grounds, however someone with a more serious fear, or perhaps agoraphobia, may never leave their house.

Below is a list of the more common anxieties, fears and phobias that we can help with:

  • Spiders – Arachnophobia
  • Flying  – aviatopophobia
  • Water – Hydrophobia
  • Heights – Acrophobia
  • Enclosed spaces – Claustrophobia
  • Open spaces – Agorophobia
  • Crowds – Demophobia
  • Darkness – Nyctophobia
  • Dentists – Odontophobia
  • Speaking in public – Glossophobia
  • Needles – AichmophobiaDeath or dying – Thanatophobia
  • Being sick – Emetophobia or Emetephobia (may also be known as phagophobia, vomitophobia, vomit phobia, sickness phobia) For more info on fear of being sick, click here.
  • Being judged or put on the spot – Social Phobia, or Scopophobia.  For more info on social phobia, click here.
  • Urinating in front of others, shy bladder, paruresis, toilet anxiety or toilet phobia
  • Defecating (either alone, or in earshot of others), stools and losing bowel control – Coprophobia, or Corporophobia

The list of phobias and fears is endless as people really can be fearful of anything in their thoughts and lives so please don’t think that we can’t help you if your fear or phobia is not listed above. It is important to note that all anxieties, phobias and fears are driven by an inner anxiety and although it won’t seem like it has very little to do with the actual ‘feared thing’

What is important is that, if your phobias and fears is having a negative impact upon you, or if it is limiting your full participation in life, or if your fear or phobia is becoming more severe and is beginning to dominate your life then it is probably time to do something about it and take steps to rid yourself of your fear or phobia.

How Hypnotherapy Can Help Anxiety in Weybridge

Perhaps there is an upcoming event that they would like specific help with.

For example, perhaps you want to go on holiday, but have a fear of flying and want help to get you onto the flight; perhaps you have a fear of spiders and are about to go camping and want some help to reduce your anxieties in relation to spiders; or perhaps you have a fear of dogs and are soon to go and stay with a friend who has a dog.

For these types of issues, Clinical Hypnosis (Suggestion Therapy) could enable you to reduce your fear or anxiety and to feel more in control.

It will provide you with a greater sense of self; it will boost your self-confidence and self-esteem; it will help you build on your self-belief and you will have a strong visual image of yourself being calm and self-assured in your upcoming event.

An added bonus is that hypnosis is wonderfully relaxing and reduces stress levels.

Here at the Weybridge Hypnotherapy Clinic we have plenty of experience in helping people to reduce fears and phobias over specific events and you would need just one session a week or two before the event in question.
