You Ask Yourself, Can You Cure A Phobia?

By Trevor Johnson

At long last, you've decided to change yourself for the better. A phobia can be a scary thing to face. Never let it become too overwhelming to you. All of us want to be released from the fear that holds us down regardless of what it may be. So you ask yourself, can you cure a phobia? Be patient with yourself, you have to start somewhere.

No one could say that they aren't afraid of at least one thing in their lives, we may not like to admit it, but it's there. Waiting for us to slip up and accept it again. We don't have to succumb to it any longer. We're stronger than it gives us credit.

Even if we're afraid of facing them, they could end up getting worse than they were before. Bundling them up deep inside of us can be upsetting our overall mental stability, even causing some problems to those around us. As much as we'd like to put the well-being of others ahead of our own, we need to grab our phobia's by their chains and reign them in.

The easiest way to stop our phobia's dead in their tracks is to begin writing a list of everything is causes us to do, including things we can't do because of it. The list below shows an example of how it should be.

1: When did I first notice I had a phobia?

2: Is there a cause to my phobia and how did it start?

3: Does it alter your everyday activities or other's?

4: What made you seek help to begin with?

5: Is it causing me or anyone else physical harm?

Finally, make sure to give detailed answers for all the questions you had listed, it may be upsetting but if you can find out how it started, then you can begin the healing process by slowly removing the negativity from your life.

Fear destroys us from the inside, it can even control the outcome of our lives. It's hard to notice at first, and sometimes we let it take over. Don't allow this to happen anymore, the sooner you release that inner fear the phobia leaves, you'll feel better about your mind and body. No one wants to be a slave to fear, don't let it keep you locked up.

When the time comes and you're there to face your fears with arms wide open. Don't get discouraged, swallow back whatever binds you and step forward. The only thing that can stand in your way is the things you place there yourself.

Never let go of your inner strength, I didn't, and soon I was cured of most of phobia's. All it took was a little time, self acceptance and of course the true enlightenment of finally being emptied of the fears that held me back. Don't give up, be strong. - 30309
