What are the Possible Causes of Phobias?

What Causes Phobias?

Phobias can have various causes, just like most other symptoms. Finding the true cause means ruling out or confirming each possibility – in other words, diagnosis.

Diagnosis is usually a complex process due to the sheer number of possible causes and related symptoms. In order to diagnose phobias, we could:

Research the topic
Find a doctor with the time
Use a diagnostic computer system.

The process is the same, whichever method is used.

Step 1: List all Possible Causes

We begin by identifying the disease conditions which have "phobias" as a symptom. For example, high histamine.

Step 2: Build a Symptom Checklist

We then identify all possible symptoms and risk factors of each possible cause, and check the ones that apply:

good cold weather tolerance

excess nose/throat mucus

being highly motivated

low tolerance for pain

abundant saliva in mouth

good creativity/imagination

nausea for 1-3 months

poor tolerance of heat

frequent colds/flus

hyperactivity

slender fingers and toes

regular unexplained nausea

... and so on

Step 3: Rule Out or Confirm each Possible Cause

A differential diagnosis of your symptoms and risk factors finds the likely cause of phobias.

Arriving at a Correct Diagnosis

The Analyst™ is our online diagnosis tool that learns all about you through a straightforward process of multi-level questioning, providing diagnosis at the end.

In the Emotional Symptoms section of the questionnaire, The Analyst™ will ask the following question about phobias:

Do you have fears or phobias? For example, fear of heights, spiders, flying, public speaking, crowds, and so on.

Possible responses:

→ No, I'm afraid of (almost) nothing
→ Minimal
→ Average / don't know
→ Moderate phobia / some fears, somewhat irrational
→ Severe phobia / many fears, irrational

Based on your response to this question, which may indicate either a lack of phobias or phobias, The Analyst™ will consider or rule out possibilities such as Histadelia (Histamine High).
