Treatment for the fear of water
(Hydrophobia)
at the Huddersfield and Manchester Hypnotherapy Clinic
Hydrophobia is a form of anxiety expression that manifests itself
as a fear of water. The fear experienced is far more than just
a mere concern or worry and can approximate to the kind of fear
that all people are capable of experiencing in response to situations
of danger (such as stepping into the road and being faced by an
oncoming car).
Each person who suffers from this phobia will have different
descriptions of how it affects them. One person affected by hydrophobia
may experience symptoms at just the thought of water or may experience
symptoms when he or she hears someone talking about water, whereas
another person may experience symptoms when he or she is having
some other sensory experience to do with water, such as the sound
of water or the contemplation of going swimming.
In general terms, phobic symptoms will occur when the subject
matter of the phobia is presented to the sufferer in any number
of ways, and the ways in which these affect the phobic person
will be unique to each sufferer, however, all sufferers of this
phobia and all other phobias do share very similar symptoms. These
symptoms can include:
- a feeling of inner anxiety.
- gasping for air/ shortness of breath.
- a feeling that the world is collapsing in on them.
- a feeling of being trapped with nowhere to go.
- increased or irregular heartbeat.
- sweating.
- a feeling of sheer dread.
Some types of therapies can take very long periods of time (years)
to cure phobias such as the fear of water, but here at Huddersfield
Hypnotherapy Clinic, we can offer permanent solutions in relatively
short time-frames leaving you free from your phobia and free to
let you get on with the business of enjoying life.
