Description: Fear, a primary emotion, directly connected to survival, is a natural endowment that we must perceive as a friend. Without fear there is only unconsciousness, and those who know how to train it can only benefit from it. But what happens when fear, from a healthy reaction, becomes pathological, in an escalation that sees it transform into anxiety, panic, phobia, making the person's life a real hell? In this volume, after having listed the different forms in which the phobic disorder manifests itself and explaining the fundamental mechanisms, Giorgio Nardone proposes a series of cases taken from the therapeutic experience conducted at the Strategic Therapy Center which he directs. From social phobias to the fear of diseases, from monophobias to phobias without panic, up to phobic delusions, once again it is demonstrated that only the patient, appropriately guided by the therapist, can find within himself the resources to solve a problem that most Sometimes it arises from a dysfunctional response, a mechanism that can be defused thanks to apparently magical measures, but which in reality arise from a profound knowledge of the way in which we all function.
