Natural Cures for Phobias
Phobias are situations of marked anxiety caused by a specific stimulus. The sufferer may not be anxious at most times but suffer an anxiety or panic attack when faced with a situation to which they have developed a response. Thus in agoraphobia there is a fear of open spaces or more properly areas outside a "safe" environment. A phobia may relate to flying, animals (spiders being a particularly common phobia), social situations (social phobia) and many other things.
Phobia Treatments
Modern Western Medicine
Certain selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) such as Citalopram are licensed for phobias but have noticeable side effects. Psychological therapies such as hypnosis are effective but hard to access in most health services.
