Hey guys,
I'm a student doing work in SA and for a large part of my grading I am basing one of my final projects on phobias. I have conducted a question of "How does psychology explain the effects of phobias on an individual?". It would be such a great help if any of you could take a minute to answer a couple, if not several or all of these questions below.
1. Are phobias a common occurrence?
2. What are the physical symptoms?
3. Are there any symptoms that are a rare side effect of a phobia that you know of or may experience?
4. How are phobias formed? How did yours start? Is it hereditary or an evolved childhood fear?
5. How do phobias physically impair someone?
6. Are phobias common? Do you know anyone else with a phobia?
7. How do phobias differ from everyday fear?
8. How would this situation be treated? How do you deal with a phobia?
Thank you!!!
