And how have you got past that with Tubes?

It's lovely, isn't it?
matched
I can totally relate to that.

And what you've described there is flooding, which is where it's complete flooding of exposure therapy, which is a form of therapy, but one...
matched
I would recommend you did it with someone that could take you through that.

But what you guys, honestly, what you've just described there is so common.
matched
I have it too.

It's so common.

I would honestly say, when I talked about it on my socials ages ago, I was inundated by people that were like, oh, it's such a common phobia.

some work around um birth trauma that actually i think because i never used to have issues with trains or tubes or planes or anything i've traveled the world twice over and i said why has this come about now and i i linked it to having children and i thought oh is this you know people talk about you know the mum anxiety which is a thing as well um but actually i was working i think i quite lucky working the the fields i work in but actually um

And one of the therapists that I was working with on this birth trauma said majority of her clients
matched
their birth trauma has manifested now as cleetrophobia and it comes from being incapacitated in childbirth.

Everyone has something which happens, you know, which starts from somewhere and that's why we need to normalise it.
matched
Yes, I try, I help you.
