Bridge Phobia Story
Hi everyone! Today I will tell you my bridge phobia and progress. I had phobia against open-top , open -rail type bridges , as the bridge shown in the picture. I had tried several times to cross , but each time I received panic attack.
One day, I stood still in the middle of the bridge , received panic attack , couldnt move , just shouted for help. But nobody heard me , I was alone on the bridge, my hands, arms were trembling. Then I found a person and requested for help. Really terrible memory ...
Afterall , I never tried to cross the bridge .
I had to extend the way to my work.
My psychologist and I worked on it for 2 session using EMDR therapy. But I still couldnt fix the phobia.
Then she started to apply EMDR along with CBT therapy which really helped a lot . Now I dont feel anything on the bridge.
After the progress, I took a photo on the middle part of the bridge with no fear.
Two therapy technique together really worked.
Always work with an authorized professional.
