How does one deal with being claustrophobic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Evaluate: Specific phobias like claustrophobia respond well to a combination of anti-anxiety medications and psychotherapy. An evaluation will help clarify if other more general anxiety disorders are involved. Once immediate symptoms are controlled, it can help to explore and improve coping strategies.
