Hospital Phobia! It's really bad and I avoid going to the doctors in case I get referred to a hospital. Went to see a consultant psychotherapist about it once on referral from my GP. He suggested that the best treatment would have to be a week in hospital!!! Needless to say, I never went back to him again. It does not ruin my life but will do if I ever have any serious health concerns again. I did have a serious lung complaint a few years back, but after it was treated I just couldn't go back to the outpatients clinics.
I totaly understand anniekon my mum hates hospitals so much that when we thought she was having heart problems she refused point blank to go to hospital luckily i got a doctor out to her and she was fine.my phobia is travelling i had to cancel a holiday to skeggie this year its only 2 an half hours away but still couldnt go whats that all about i went last year i am going to see someone about it though hopefully they can help have you seen anyone anniekon?
Only my GP and the consultant that suggested I spend a week in hospital and a cure! I even can't bear to go for all the routine medical checkups. It started when my Dad was in hospital with a brain tumour and he had to undergo what I now consider unecessary operations that were more for the university hospital's sake than for giving him a better quality of life. I can quite honestly say that I fear death less than I fear hospitals. I think it's something to do with people knowing things about me that I don't know and all the whispering that hospital staff do. Just the thought of it makes me panic!!!
I'm scared of driving. It does ruin my life because even though I have a license I have to rely on other people to take me where I need to go. I'm trying to get over it by repeating to my self before I go to sleep that its safe to drive. So, far it does help. I can actually drive somewhere near my house but not anywhere to far.
I do understand anniekon my mum feels the same way because of the way the hospital treated my grandad.but i think your amazing for doing all that travaling by your self one day i hope to do that.And cristina i passed my test so that i wouldnt have to rely on people and if i was in a situation i didnt like i could come home but now i feel like i cant get to those places in the first place so feel like i wasted my time passing.it sounds daft and i dont understand it but il get help to understand.i drive locally to my mums to the shops but anywhere out of my area forget it.
I�m completely phobic of hospitals. I can�t even drive past one and if I have to then I start to feel sick, shake and cry if I even look at the building. I love children but not sure that I could bring myself to go to hospital to have them!!! I know you can get hypnotised to help phobias, has anybody ever done that?
I'm like zgma. I've got really high expectations of myself. For instance, I just got my AS results and I got 4As and a B and was hugely disappointed a really hard on myself about it. It doesn't ruin my life but does make things like getting results very stressful and I never have that elated, celebratory feeling that others get when they do well, cos I always want to have done better x x x U?
