Common Questions and Answers about Overcome fear thunderstorm

fear

Avatar f tn Before jumping on medication, maybe try some therapy to teach you how to cope with this fear and learn some relaxation techniques. I had this fear until I had my first child, and then I had to face this, and not be scared to keep him from being scared. For awhile I was terrified, but he never knew it, next thing I knew, no fear. So long as you're indoors your fine, and even outdoors chances of being hit by lightning are so small.
1711940 tn?1308352692 Ask your vet about it and try it before there is an actual thunderstorm. If you try the Klonopin, try it before the thunderstorm too to see how your pup reacts to the meds. I've had a couple of dogs that were so scared of fireworks that they would tremble and pant. I would turn up the TV, turn on the radios in every room, run fans, run the dishwasher, anything that would drown out the noise coming from outside. It helped some.
Avatar f tn WELL I DONT THINK MY BABE LIKES THUNDERSTORMS. LAST NIGHT WE HAD A REAL BAD STORM AND EVERY TIME THE THUNDER GOT REALLY LOUD MY STOMACH GOT REALLY HARD THEN I WOULD FEEL LITTLE PUNCHES OR KICKS LOL. I GUESS BABE IS SLEEP NOW CAUSE I HAVEN'T FELT HE OR SHE THIS MORNING LOL. ANYBODY HAVE THIS PROBLEM?
Avatar m tn Agreed. But some of these fears can be overcome. Puppies and chicks tend to be fast moving. Find the right kind of puppy at a pound or store, and I bet his response will be different.
Avatar f tn It is safe to use melatonin only at night for thunderstorm phobia. Don't use melatonin during the day since it can throw off the natural biorhythm and do more harm than good. During the day you can use Bach's Rescue Remedy, or a herbal anti-anxiety formula that contains: hops, passionflower, valerian, and poppy. If the herbal's are ineffective, than it would be best to get a prescription medication from your dog's vet.
Avatar f tn So, this type of problem make an issue after some time so as soon as possible you go for the eye care specialist. I hope your problem overcome early.
203342 tn?1328737207 The last month or so my just turned four year old has been showing fear towards loud noises. It seems like I really noticed it when I took him out of state with me a couple of weeks ago. I knew he was out of his element and normal routine but it seemed like he was more clingy to me. I didn't mind, just gave him more cuddles. We had to sleep in the same double bed on this trip and the first night there was a thunderstorm. He sat up in bed crying.
Avatar f tn I agree with everyone else, but I also understand your problem.....I have two thunderstorm phobic dogs.....My fear is one is going to have a Heart Attack because they are so frightened!! After trying many things first, I have had to resort to my Vet writing a prescription for a sedative...... The trick though is that I have to know when a storm is coming because the medication has to be given 1 hour before the event......
Avatar n tn I had a traumatic experience when I was a young child which left me with the fear of uncontrolled bleeding. I have attempted to overcome this fear through therapy and work in medical and dental offices. However, it returns to paralyze me at times. I need a molar extracted due to an abcess and the fear of bleeding has returned. I have had extractions in the past and obviously I survived but the anxiety continues to be huge.
Avatar m tn See a Dr, we can't diagnosis you.
Avatar m tn The first is whether or not it is going to rain, be windy or if there will be a thunderstorm. Last summer we had few bad thunderstorms so I can see where some of he fear may come from, asking every night seems extreme to me. The second situation revolves around the fact that on Saturday nights we let our daughter watch a movie in her room when she goes to bed.

Avatar f tn What is the best way to overcome anxiety that is rooted in the fear of disease
Avatar f tn I am going through this. I have ocd.
Avatar m tn - Firstly, a method of releasing or handling the subconscious "hurt memories" which have been stored. - Secondly, developing self-confidence to deal with the actual situation which triggers the fear. - Thirdly, developing new responses to express the emotions that are felt when the situation recurs.
Avatar n tn ve tried to overcome the fear with little success. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
8769357 tn?1402719875 I don't know about anywhere else but here in UK in West Midlands the thunderstorm is really bad. The sound of that strong wind is creeping me out.. I'm terrified I can't even sleep I feel so tired. Any UK mom's feeling the same???
Avatar f tn When there is a storm try and focus on something else. If you don't concentrate on your fear you won't have the panic attack. If it makes you feel better maybe you should talk to your parents about an emergency plan Set up a meeting place or know where to go for shelter if for some reason you couldn't' stay in your house. Make sure you have flashlights and batteries on hand.
Avatar f tn You need to address why you have this fear and therapy will help you do this. Once you can overcome the fear, your anxiety will improve immensely. But therapy takes time and medication will help until you sort thru all of this. Best wishes.
Avatar m tn As to how to overcome this fear, all anxiety is overcome the same way -- you either do it over and over until you stop being afraid of it or you seek professional therapy to teach you ways of overcoming it. Learning some relaxation techniques might help, such as meditation and breathing exercises. If the anxiety is beyond any control you can consider medication -- if this is your only phobia, a relaxant you only take when you have to get your blood pressure taken might be of use.
Avatar f tn ( we have been having thunderstorm after thunderstorm! The goods of living in the south ..
Avatar f tn To overcome anxiety, one must understand the logic of why the brain is feeling threatened, it sends messages to the body saying its under threat. New pathways need to be created to overcome the old programming. So for example, if you panic over a fear of flying, you must start flying and let the brain realise that its all okay, and reprogram the thoughts. However, the fear of dying can't really be practiced. Some buddhists meditate in a morgue as it is the closest we can get to dying.
Avatar f tn I've been diagnosed for 2 yrs now a take a med to help. My fear is my heart I can run 2/3 miles and be fine. However when I'm worked up I'm afraid of my heart stopping and I dont know why. I suffer from a constant fear and flight have had numerous heart tests and blood work yearly and all are fine but I get a weird anxiety feeling in my chest all the time and I dont know how to overcome this.
Avatar m tn I notice that when there are few moments in which this depression goes down, that causes the fear to return. Then, of course, immediately once the fear returns, that causes the chronic depression to take back over and replace the fear. I notice that a certain level of this depression is necessary to hold off the fear. If it is anything below that, the fear returns.
Avatar f tn Hey BetteI understand how obsessive thoughts can feel so real. I have suffered for many different obsessions over my life. The first thing that you need to realize is that pregnancy cannot happen if sperm has been out of the body for more than a few minutes. The second thing, that is the hardest is understanding that reassurance from others really won't help you overcome your fear.
