10/03 Ask Dr. Phil and Robin
Quote From: crashandburnDr. Phil,
I was watching your show today and you said that any phobia could be overcome. I am deathly afraid of bees/wasps/anything else that stings. I have never been stung (as far as I remember) but it is very difficult for me to function when there is one flying around. I remember one instance when I was outside and ran from a bee, and it chased me. It has gotten to the point where I am afraid to wear yellow (that's what I was wearing when I was chased) and I won't go outside when I see one flying around. I am 22 and will graduate from college soon, as a Social Studies teacher, and I don't know that I could remain calm if one were to fly into my classroom when I am teaching one day. Aside from actually being stung, is there a way to overcome this fear? I heard somewhere before that phobias that you have reveal how you passed in a past life. I'm extremely cluster-phobic if anything is put over my face, my wedding gown will prob be short a veil. Hypnosis may help, if your interested.
