"I don't take the elevator; it gives me claustrophobia!" - "I won't be going to the city festival. I'll definitely faint there!" People with agoraphobia or claustrophobia fear situations where escape is difficult or help seems unavailable. Out of fear of being helpless, many affected individuals significantly restrict their lives. Some don't even dare to leave the house alone anymore. Experienced psychotherapist Hans Morschitzky vividly describes what claustrophobia is and explains the underlying reasons for its development. In a behavioral therapy 7-step program, he competently assists those affected in managing their fears.
