Who do you discuss your phobias and anxiety with?

[Admin]

Friends, family and professional assistance are just some of the options open to those suffering from phobias and anxiety. We would be interested to know who you feel more comfortable with when discussing phobias and anxiety? Perhaps you feel there is nobody you can talk to?

Our initial feedback suggest that suffers prefer to speak to other sufferers because they understand at least part of what they're going through, everybody is different, and are often more understanding.

In the past it has been difficult to discuss my anxiety and phobias with close friends and family out of embarrassment and a feeling of “weakness”. While in my heart of hearts I know this is not the situation, this forum allows me to anonymously discuss any issues and questions I may have which is the right way for me at the moment.
