Not necessarily. I’ve heard of people who conquered their fear of heights by just being on top of a tall building.
Hey how about someone with Iatrophobia, how can he be cured by a doctor? XD
if not serious kids will outgrow it. if serious they need help of doctors.
it’s more appropriate to use “therapy” rather than medicine.
kids must undergo therapy to resolve psychological trauma.
particularly in the Phils adults will tell the kids “wag dyan may momo”.
kids are misinformed about snakes/reptiles, frogs etc
kids will have psychological trauma as they mature. hence they need therapy to get over it.
one more thing:
it is better to use professional help or therapist rather than doctor.
yes most psychological trauma can be corrected by therapy. it is important to find out if a kid suffer such problem at an early age.
