Answer #1

try just lying to yourself for a long period of time. say you have a huge phobia of heights. just tell yourself your not afraid at all and own it. force yourself to believe something that isnt. take it in baby steps. if your afraid of heights, go on small things and work your way up

Answer #2

I have a horrible fear of heights… i once went into an elevator with a giant window in it and almost lost it completely, i was shaking. it was horrible. there really is no way to completely get rid of phobias, trust me iv tried everything. i just tell myself to stay calm and that ill be alright. only thing that works for me
