Phobias

The phobias are a class of dysfunction of the character and of the behavior that they are not able to consioderarse authentic madness, but that they limit the normal life of who suffer them. In general, great part of the phobias is considered not very serious dysfunctions, since they don't end up modifying in excess the affected individual's legal capacity, but only your way to live and to feel punctual events: before a snake, will you be able to be paralyzed of terror, but how many reptiles are you possible to see around in our industrialized society? And if one fears to the heights until the point of getting dizzy, with avoiding too high sibirse, everything will be controlled. This way, the existence of a phobia is only detected when your appearance represents a true handicap, a problematic limitation for the quotidian life that accuse that something strange you happen.

What should be very clear from a start is that, the phobia is not more than a way more than expressing the anxiety: some scream, others cry. You are to consider then, this complicated petition like a safety appliance that it can facilitate to the affected one the coexistence with that concrete anguish. Of not being funneled this way, you would overcome the borders of the humanly bearable thing. Thanks to the existence of this feature of urgency, you are derived the anxiety to some very concrete and clearly defined status, but variable manifestation.

The phobic ones that more treatment requests are the agoraphobics, that is to say, auqellos that suffer when they are among the multitude or in open spaces; the claustrophobics, those that suffer in petty or very closed places; and in general who suffer some social concrete phobia, I eat for example to live in collective.

On the other hand, the specific phobias or almost inadvertent simplespasan for the remainder of the humans: who suffer when vé a worm, a spider or simply blood, will hardly fix in your problems, since it can allocate your anguish to an apprehension excess.

As for the why of the appearance of the phobias, the clinical reports suggest that the traumatic tests that cause a strong reaction of anguish mark the start of some phobias. However, in spite of the advances in the field of the neurociencias, we find the dark side of our emotions incomprehensible, especially in case we are caught by them. We react with a terror flare without the córtex knows what you are happening: the wonderful emociñon is activated before the pansy and in a standalone way.

How are you treated this problem? According to the experts, the precedence is to return the trust in itself to the patient who besides the treatment, you need support. This process can last from four months to several years, depending on the graveness of the case and of the elected therapy.
