subject: Choosing The Right Injection Phobia Cure [print this page] A Needle Fear, like all fears, phobias and anxiety affects the part of the brain where the natural defence mechanism is located. Essentially the normal defensive response, because of a previous bad experience has been amplified over time to produce an extreme response. This heightened reaction that causes a fear is a defined medical condition that affects an estimated 10 percent of the population.
For those people who suffer from a fear of injections, going to hospital or the doctor's surgery to have a necessary jab would be impossible. Does comment from someone who is afraid of needles sound familiar? "I couldn't even go in and have my blood pressure taken, let alone see a needle on the sidewalk without getting panic stricken." If so, or if you avoid anything to do with needles or injections or if when you must have one, at the dentist's for example, the thought of it occupies a great deal of your time and interferes with your life then you may have developed a phobic response to needles. Especially if over time these feelings are becoming stronger.
Can phobias really be cured?
A number of professional online talking cures have been developed to help encourage sufferers to make the changes that would help them put that old injection anxiety in the past and move forward.
