In the year 1492 Christopher Columbus sailed to the Bahamas in search of China, on the Santa Maria. Columbus sent two Spaniards, Rodrigo de Jerez and Lois de Torres, who spoke Chadic and Arabic, to walk through Indian villages in search of the Emperor of China. Neither men spoke Chinese or any local native languages. In fact, Columbus and none of his crew had ever been to China or Asia.

Phobia List Podcast

Fear is a normal emotion within us all. It is related to the survival instinct. It alerts us to a threat, and prepares us for action – either ‘fight or flight’. Life Free From Phobias – YouTube Video  [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M10eV48G2tA] When a fear is said to be ‘irrational’ or illogical, absurd, nonsensical, or ridiculous – we call it a ‘phobia’. There are three types of phobias; * agoraphobia (such as large, open spaces where there are few ‘places to hide’), * social phobia (such as fear of other people, performance anxiety etc), and * specific phobias (such as spiders, snakes, dogs, water, insects, flying, heights, confined spaces etc). Somewhere between 10 – 20 percent of people suffer from at least one significant phobia. It is the most common mental disorder among women and the second most common in men worldwide. The feeling of fear may be accompanied by heart palpitations, ‘cold sweats’, clammy hands, ‘butterfly stomach’ sensations, dizziness, and an overwhelming need to ‘run away’ and ‘escape’. This is often, but not always accompanied by feelings of intense ‘worry’ or ‘anxiety’. When confronted with the feared situation, the sufferer may even have a ‘panic attack’, the spontaneous onset of intense fear that makes them feel as if they might stop breathing and pass out, or even have a heart attack and die.
