Phobia Support Group

Welcome!
I actually like thunderstorms and lightning, but tornadoes scare me too!

Hi, You are not alone. I am in the anxiety, depression and phobia groups. I've met a friend on here who is terrified of loud noises. You are not alone. It's like any other panic attack. Tell yourself it won't kill you and let time pass. Float with the feelings and fear no matter how intense and you will see that you will survive. The body goes back into a normal state in a short time. You just have to really believe that deep in your heart.

Well said !laniescherr.By contrast,you can also go on sitting silently, trying to control your thoughts, not allowing your emotions such as fear, not allowing any movement within you, slowly slowly it will become your habit. But this is the greatest deception in the world you can give to yourself, because everything is exactly the same, nothing has changed. it just appears as if you have gone through a transformation.Because what you do is actually a reprssion that will cause a flare-up of the conflict inside of you .

Tornados FREAK ME OUT!
