Face it: Feel your fear and face it .Most neurotic fears can be overcome with cognitive behavioral therapy. This involves understanding and confronting your fears in a way that helps you overcome thematically.

Interpretation: Your interpretation of the situation your are in as well as the symptoms you are feeling can lead to a fear. Breathing changes are also a factor. Working with a cognitive behavioral therapist can help. You will need to approach your fear in small steps in order to over come it.

CBT: Seek a cognitive-behavioral therapist who specializes in phobias. One method they use is systematic desensitization which slowly and incrementally brings the person closer and closer to the thing they are afraid of in slow, graduated steps that help make the anxiety more tolerable.
