Hello. if you have a intense phobia/fear for nut allergies, but don't have any nut allergies. what is it called? and how do you overcome it? eating?

BET: You probably have other unreasonable fears. If i'm right it's a good time to start psychotherapy with the goal of living comfortably, without fear. If i'm wrong someone will help decondition you - cognative behavioral therapy. It's a good time to start either one.
