I never thought about an airplane or other mode of transportation being their to keep me safe. Hearing this has changed my outlook on traveling. Thank you

Considering enclosed places such as airplanes as a place of safety has changed my perception and attitude toward those places. Thank you for real help.

Thank you so much for this! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Omg hoorah.after last weeks horrendous episode with an MRI I've finally found out why I am claustrophobic!. I jumped in a pool as a small child and had to be dragged out coughing and spluttering! I didn't think it would be this ! Now it explains it! No wonder I had the bad reaction in the MRI, I felt like I was being crushed and couldn't breath! Thank you Nik and Eva...I'll work on this now. 🙏

it's interesting isn't it how a person's perception of enclosed spaces can change. As a child we can be frightened of an enclosed space for example if a sibling has locked us in a cupboard or tries to cover us with a duvet for a joke, or we can find enclosed spaces exciting if we're playing hide and seek. In both scenarios the enclosed is neutral and just exists and has done nothing wrong, but it's the meaning we give it based on what happened to us in the moment. Excellent work as always, thank you.

You’re right Stephen, and thank you x

I am so happy I found your video! This has been great advice.

Great video , thank you so much

I have claustrophobic for 15 years. I really want to get over this. Especially elevator and toilets. What if I die when I get stuck, like a heartattack?

The only 1 thing that is a 100% cettain my friend,is that no kind of panic attack can actually heart you,as much as they feel real they are only feelings.

Really helpful - thank you

I have issues with airplanes and elevators. I did have difficulties with a swimming lesson when I was a child where somebody held my head underwater. That and being Locked in my bedroom. I think looking at it this way is a place of safety Verses Not being safe will help Thank you.

I can't even think about being closed up in my mom's womb 😵

But, what if your claustrophobia began as a result of the entrapment of pregnancy and a prolonged and difficult vaginal, forceps delivery that caused facial stitches, head trauma, etc.?

WOW I never thought of it as being kept safe

Hope once you’ve watched our film, that you can agree you were not trapped as you got out, therefore you were just inconvenienced. When you change your perspective positively, your feelings will follow and change positively too. Good luck x

The way to deal with any fear is to identify, analyse and then challenge the origin. Understanding why you believe this and challenging that belief is the most effective way. If you find this difficult to do yourself, you could seek therapy so that the therapist can assist with the positive change of perspective.
