Phobia

Phobia is a persistent fear which is irrational. It can be of any object living, non-living or of a situation

It may or may not have any relation to an incident or a situation in one’s life.
Generally, phobias are accompanied by a strong desire to avoid a particular situation or object one fears.
It can also lead to an inability to function normally at job, home or at social settings.
With hundreds of fears and specific medicines listed in homoeopathic repertory (books enlisting medicines against symptoms), an effective treatment of phobias is possible with homoeopathic medicines.
Leave aside the common fears – lizards, heights, spider, snakes, cockroaches, mouse, etc- even if one dreads something not common, or not listed in books, homoeopathy has a way out. By studying one’s constitution (mental and physical characteristics, family history, etc.) a prescription can be made to effectively treat the specific uncommon fear.
If phobias are a part of other diseases such as chronic depressions, etc, they need to be evaluated and treated accordingly.
