A doctor has provided 1 answer

Therapy or meds: Exposure response prevention (erp) therapy, a form of cognitive behavioral therapy (cbt) is a psychotherapy which focuses on specific phobias to reduce or eliminate the anxiety and fear associated with them. Alternatively, ssris and other antidepressants can reduce generalized anxiety and panic attacks, and benzodiazapine like Ativan (lorazepam) and valium can help with infrequent phobias like flying.
