Common Phobias!!!! Are you feared!!!

Number 1: Fear of Heights

Do you have a fear of heights? If so, then you’re one of the millions of people worldwide who suffer from this fear one way or another. In fact, its so common that almost everyone has been affected by it at some stage in their lives & this is why it makes it to the top of our common phobias list. Most people who are affected by the fear of heights phobia will instinctively avoid all places where height is involved. Some will have a severe form of this phobia and will even avoid going up a few feet on a ladder. 

The thing is that you can get by without this fear having a major impact on your life. This is the reason why so many just live with it. However, wouldn’t it be better to just rid yourself of this fear once and for all? Wouldn’t life be far better without having to make excuses to your friends that you can’t go because you know there’s height involved. Wouldn’t it be so much easier to just get on a plane without worrying about being so far up in the sky? Being afraid of heights doesn’t have to complicate your life. You can overcome the fear of heights in only a few weeks just by listening to subliminal messages twice a day.


Number 2: Fear of Flying


The fear of flying phobia, also known as Aerophobia is one of the mostcommon phobias and affects many of us on a daily basis. Most people don’t like being confined in a metal tube miles above the earth while others are more afraid of the plane crashing. Whatever th
e reason for this fear, there’s one thing for sure and that is, its very disruptive for the traveler. There are many people who wont set foot on a plane, they’ll take the boat instead. Imagine traveling to America from Europe in a boat, can you believe some people do this so that they wont have to get on a plane. It may sound ridiculous to some but to the person who has this phobia, its quite natural. Flying without fear is a goal which most people who suffer from this phobia think they'll never succeed to do.

Number 3: Fear of Public Speaking


Its easy to see why this fear has made it into our common phobias list.We’ve all been there at some stage of our lives, whether its a speech you had to make at work or a wedding speech, you had to stand up in front of many people and talk, its one of our most common fears. Its a worst case scenario for many people, they worry about making a fool of themselves, they worry that they’ll get it all wrong
 and everyone will start talking about them. This couldn’t be further from the truth. This phobia is very common and so it goes without saying that most of the people in the audience are also affected by it. What this means is that everyone in the audience supports you, they want you to succeed & no one is going to laugh when if you make a cock up. 


Just think about it for a second, do you watch those quizzes on TV, the contestant is on the million dollar question, the pressure is immense. Do you want this person to get the question wrong? Of course you don’t! You want the contestant to get the question right and walk away with the million. This is human nature, people will want you to succeed and this is the same when it comes to public speaking, they’re all supporting you. However, sometimes this isn’t enough for some people who are affected by this phobia. If you want to know how to overcome your fear of public speaking then listening to Subliminal tapes can significantly reduce any fear you may have about public speaking. Try it for a few weeks before you must give your speech and you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Number 5: Fear of Snakes

The fear of snakes is a very common phobia and its not too hard to see why its high up in our common phobias list. Snakes are common throughout the world & live in almost all countries except for Ireland, Greenland, Iceland & New Zealand. So, if you want to avoid snakes then you’re going to have to live in a country like Ireland for example. 


The weird thing about this phobia though, is that there are many people from these countries who also have this fear. They come from the 4 known countries in the world that don’t have snakes but they are still terrified of them. 


So, this phobia is more in the psyche than anything else & can be cured if you take the time out to do something about it. By listening to positive affirmations for around 14 days, you can significantly reduce your fear of snakes.


Number 6: Fear of Spiders

The fear of spiders is close to the top of our common phobias list. This phobia, known as arachnophobia is usually in the domain of women as 50% of them are terrified of spiders while only 10% of men are affected. The extent of this phobia can vary with some people having a mild form of this fear while others will panic even if they see a picture of a spider. 


This fear is completely irrational as the vast majority of spiders in the western world are completely harmless. However this fact doesn’t seem to matter to anyone who is affected by this phobia. They will panic if they come across a spider in their bathroom and will usually have to get someone else to remove it. For most, this phobia wont really have a major effect on their life but its still a nuisance all the same. For some, it can be life altering as they spend most of their time worrying about where the next spider is going to come from. For these people, hypnotherapy is a viable option. Just listening to some recordings for a few weeks twice a day can have a major effect on this phobia.
