Re: What is ment by social anxiety/ phobia ?
In order to get over your phobia, you must first know what you are afraid of. Know what it is that you fear and prepare to face that fear so that you can overcome it. Set your goal and tell yourself that you are determined in overcoming your fears no matter what. You must always reassure yourself that you are dedicated in getting rid of your phobia. This may be done by having a personal mantra that you will recite to yourself everyday. Hypnosis can be used in order for a doctor to get into your subconscious and minimize the cause of the phobia. When you are under hypnosis, your mind tends to relax, and you will feel as if you are in a different world where everything is safe. This helps the doctor to get into your mind and work on the subconscious ideas that may be causing your phobia.
