Guest guest Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 I've got one over=worked Angel with me and I keep requesting her (?his) presence whenever I'm scared/phobic! The worst for me so far was the MRI - but I HAD to have it. I just kept saying to myself - " it's only a few minutes - I'll be out soon. " It 'sort of' worked, but essentially was over before I really panicked - mind control? We all need to find our way thru a 'gotta-do'. For me it's tight spaces. If it were needles, well, gosh they really are over in a few seconds - even IV's - although they make me queasy. I try to just ignore them for the time they need to be in. Like the last time I had one in a really (for me) icky place on my body - I kept telling myself 'it's putting good things into my body'. You just need to find some kind of coping mechanism that works for you for this stuff because most times it can't be avoided. Maybe that's it - you have to get thru it because it means so much!! I feel for anyone having to go thru something that causes a phobia try to relax, breathe deep, pray. Hang in there, it always has an end! ---Donna-Marie Griffiths wrote: > Just a quick question, how can we over come Phobias such as needles, small spaces any special idea's? Sometimes it comes to much for me and I freak out literally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
