it's gonna be a serious problem. wow pointless story cause all i wanted to ask was.. can people get over phobias?

Answer 1

I'm pretty sure with therapy and help, yes. I'm sure its possible,

but not in a short amount of time.  Talk to your doctor..you might have to see a shrink.  Good luck!

Answer 2

Of course people get over phobias. I have a TERRIBLE (don't laugh) fear of moths. I've started going to therapy and everything because they're freaking EVERYWHERE! I scream every time I see one.

But the point of me going to therapy is not to get rid of my fear, but to "deal with it in a better way."

That, or go on Maury and get hypnotized into being fearless of newts.

Answer 3

Answer 6

Yes a person can get over a phobia but the best way to get over something you fear is by doing it.Just do it.

So you have been there several times,well nothing bad has happened to you yet,right,well the more you go,the more comfortable you will become with going there.
