Phobias
- A symbolic representation of an internal anxiety
Although some Phobias appear to serve an obvious purpose (fear of
fire, drowning, heights etc.) others seem to make no sense at all but as
strange as some phobias seem your mind thinks they are all serving an
important purpose.
Phobias are often called fears and fears are
often thought of as phobias but they
are quite different to each other. Fear
has an obvious focus on danger to us. Phobias are irrational, excessive
reactions to often non dangerous objects animals or situations yet they
cause huge amounts of anxiety, heart pounding, tremors, shortness of breath,
dizziness etc.

Phobia s are a symbolic
representation of internal anxiety
Many people suffer phobic reactions
to things from feeling a little bit silly about something to a full blown
panic attack when they are forced to face their phobia.
Most Phobias are not directly related to the
cause of the emotion, they are 'symbolic of it'.
A good
example is the fear of snakes. How many
people do you know who have been harmed by a snake in this country?....
probably none? so here is a phobia fact . . .
Phobia Fact
Per capita there are just as many snake
phobics in Ireland as in any country in the world. However there are no
snakes native to Ireland - so in effect apart from zoos there are no snakes
in Ireland!
Question: Where did all those people go
to get frightened of snakes? Answer : They didn't go anywhere! their fear
doesn't have anything to do with snakes, they have a fear/strong emotional
reaction to being out of control - which their mind symbolises and
then projects onto snakes and associations to snakes and becomes phobic
about snakes.
