Avatar f tn Exactly, I have an extreme phobia for HIV. At the same time, I cannot even resist myself from having sex. But I never have penetrative sex only handjob and insertive oral. Thanks for your answer.
Avatar f tn I first have to ask why someone with an "extreme HIV phobia" would work in a lab such as you do. I have an extreme fear of snakes and they couldn't pay me enough to work around the things. I also can't understand how someone in your position in not one of the most highly qualifed people to know how difficult it is to actually contrract HIV. You say that you always wear the correct protective gear while working with these specimens.
Avatar f tn Here is how you get HIV, the ONLY way you'd get HIV: if you have unprotected penetrative vaginal or anal sex or sharing of drug needles. Hiv is inactivated by air and saliva. Every time you have a fear of HIV, remember that. It should alleviate the worry. If you didn't do these things, you aren't going to get HIV.
Avatar n tn I have anxiety whenever I have to be in a quiet room because im afraid that my stomach will make noises, and thats lead to a phobia of being in quiet places. Im a pretty anxious person to begin with but its gotten really bad like to the point that I cant go to class, be in quiet places, or even go to the movies unless it is a loud action movie. I know this all sounds really weird but im seriously in need of help because I feel like im trapped by it. Thanks for all the help!
Avatar n tn Ok thank you very much! I hope that you are correct! I just don't know how to get rid of this PHOBIA! Perhaps i should take the 8 month test. But i can't get over the fear that i might turn positve and can't force my self to take the test. But i am also afraid if i don't take the test and make sure i am 100% HIV free i might be infected and not knowing about it. I know this is wierd but thats how i feel and i have no idea why.
Avatar f tn Fear of heights in all its forms is, I believe, the 2d most common phobia (the first is fear of speaking in public, officially, but I'm guessing more people confront heights than the need to speak in public so I'm guessing heights might be the most common fear). I have this phobia, but didn't have it until I got a full-blown anxiety disorder. If this is your only phobia, good; if you have several and are anxious about a lot of things, harder.
Avatar f tn How can I get over a phobia. I have a very weird phobia, i always have the fear of some bug or creature flying in my ear. I never wear my hair up outside and I try to have my hair down inside too if i can. Even when i am sleeping i hate to have my ears not covered. What should i do?
Avatar m tn A combo is conclusive after 28 days so it is abnormal to test repeatedly for the same disease. Further testing will indicate hiv phobia for which you need to see a therapist.
Avatar n tn I have had a toothache/facepain for over two weeks, I know I need to go and see a dentist but I have a great fear of going because of cetain circumstances that happened while going to the dentist as a child. I have been taking advil for the pain and most times it is tolerable but now it seems to be getting worse as it is keeping me awake at night.
Avatar m tn i am 100 percent vegan exercise 2 hr each day and do meditation daily besides a lobotomy what else can I do to relieve my fear of blood pressure reading from a dr? http://youtu.
17213106 tn?1456525991 ve personally taken all three and never suffered any side effects at all, and I managed health foods stores for 18 years and never heard of anyone reporting any side effects. Manukka honey is just another form of honey -- bees pollinating a particular plant that happens to produce a unique antibiotic other honeys don't have. DGL is just a form of common licorice, with the part taken out responsible for most of the side effects commonly reported from licorice (mostly high blood pressure).

Avatar f tn And your fear of it going through the flor and contaminating your bed. Not possible. You need to go ahead and realize that this is a serious issue if you are irrational and having a phobia. Do you see a psychologist? If not, please do. This is treatable. Exposure therapy is the best for this type of thing. ERP therapy is what it is called and it is the gold standard. Medication helps too. Are there other things you have irrational fear about?
Avatar f tn Oh. I read the title of the post. Maybe I saw the word phobia and then used it as essentially that was what the poster was implying. Sorry as nothing was intentionally posted to disagree. My eye sight is way too bad to use my phone for this. I have to enlarge and basically should probably wait until I am at my PC to be more 'PC'. Again just wanted to help the poster but didn't"t mean to step on toes.
Avatar f tn You are both suffering from a very common phobia. Fear of the dark goes back to the dawn of man and since that time, millions of people have fought it all there lives. Please do not berate yourselves for this phobia or think you are silly for being afraid of the dark at your age. Our phobias are ours to own and suffer with as long as we do nothing about them. Since both of you have stated that your phobia is now interfering with your lives, it's time to take the bull by the horns!

Avatar f tn t left the house for around two years. The thing that bothers me is that agoraphobia is a fear of going outside, getting out of the safety zone, etc. But when I was in the house, I felt that I just couldn't leave, I don't remember feeling "fear" or thinking anything along the lines of that. I get panic attacks a lot even now, but it's just anxiousness, I can't seem to see it as fear... Even I find it a bit odd, but I just can't help but feel that way...
Avatar f tn you can move out of that stage of fear but you will need help to unravel and begin to understand where it came from. take care and best of luck. ps don't be discouraged if you don't like the first therapist you meet. like any other relationship you need to find the right match and should trust and respect and like the person (a woman in your case to begin).
Avatar n tn My main objective is to give you some insight into your chronic phobia of the dark. The fear of the dark is a very valid phobia to begin with and could branch into many other more specific phobias, such as nyctophobia, the fear of the darkness and the main one I wish to talk to you about now. Nyctophobia is any fear of darkness and it does not have to be chronic. It is usually caused by a magnification of the brain's natural perception of what could happen in a dark environment.
Avatar f tn I'm 33 yrs.old as I sit in my room and weigh the pros and cons of sending my daughter to daycare because her classmate was throwing up when I picked her up yesterday! Of course I was immediately feeling uneasy because of it and took meds last night to not throw up! I've talked to a therapist about it& it's done no good. This has been with me my ENTIRE Life! As a 6yr.old I sat outside my house for hours because a family member had a virus.
