When anti-anxiety medications don’t help and what to do about it using Homoeopathic remedies
In a New York Times article on flight phobia, Richard A. Friedman, M.D., a professor of Clinical Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical College and attending psychiatrist at NewYork–Presbyterian Hospital, wrote, “If you think you can outsmart your phobia with anti-anxiety medications like Valium and Klonopin, forget about it; they might numb you during an acute panic attack, but they will not erase your phobia. In fact, they could get in the way of therapy because they impede new learning, which is the essence of curing phobias. To kick a travel phobia, you have to fight fire with fire; you have to tolerate some anxiety to get rid of it. No shortcuts.”
That is where Homoeopathy comes in with its principle of “like cures like”. Homoeopathic remedies are excellent in helping with fear, including flight or travel phobia. Multiple remedies are available depending on the person’s particular circumstances. If you are suffering from phobia of any kind, homoeopathy might be the solution you have been looking for.
