Fear of crowds? Imagine what your life will be like without it...

NLP and Hypnosis have been proved to be an extremely effective method for treating fear of crowds.

Fear of crowds is an anxiety disorder that involves fear of enclosed or confined spaces.

Many people suffer from fear of crowds with the effects that it has on their life ranging from mild discomfort to distress all the way through to sheer panic.

Fear of crowds can develop from a unpleasant childhood experience (such as being trapped in a small space during a childhood game or lost in a crowd), or from an experience later on in life involving confined spaces (such as being stuck in an elevator) or feeling bad while in a crowd.

When an individual experiences such an event, it can often trigger a panic attack; this response then becomes programmed in the brain, establishing an association between being in a tight space or crowd and feeling anxious or out-of-control. As a result, the person often develops fear of crowds.

Typical things that can trigger an attack of fear of crowds.

• Being in small or confined spaces i.e. lifts, tube trains, tunnels, aircraft.

• Being surrounded by a large number of people.

• Any situation where the person can't see an easy escape route or exit.

Typical behaviour patterns of a person with fear of crowds.

• When entering a room, start checking for where the exits are. Position himself/herself near the exits. Feel very uneasy when all the doors are shut.

* Avoid large numbers of people or traveling during times of day when there could be large numbers of people.

• Avoids going to parties, concerts, large sporting events etc.

• Often people will say that they feel scared if they can't see an easy escape route to exit the situation.

Consider the true cost of living with fear of crowds.

If you are living with fear of crowds, what is the real cost to your health, your career or education and to your family life? Avoiding the issue indefinitely would mean resigning yourself to living in fear, missing out on priceless life experiences big and small, living a life that is just a shadow of what it will be when the problem is gone.

For anyone earning a living, the financial toll of this phobia is incalculable. Living with fear means you can never concentrate fully and give your best. Lost opportunities. Poor performance or grades. Promotions that pass you by fear of crowds will likely cost you tens, even hundreds of thousands of pounds over the course of your lifetime, let alone the cost to your health and quality of life.

It is true that people are born with only 2 fears - falling and loud noises -and all the others are learnt. The good news is that because your phobia is a learnt response a new response can be learnt to stop your phobia. Now fear of crowds can be gone for less than the price of a weekend away.

From experience we typically find that in the majority of cases of fear of crowds are treatable in 1 or 2 sessions.
