What is Claustrophobia?
Claustrophobia is a situational fear that caused one great anxiety while in small spaces like lifts, tunnels, airplanes, closets, even small cars etc. Any space that feels tight and constrictive can trigger someone with this phobia. The fear stems from the feeling of being unable to escape and feeling trapped.
The word claustrophobia comes from the Latin word 'clauder' which means to shut and the Greek word 'phobos' which means to dread or to fear.

Interesting Fact:
Nearly 4% of the world suffers from this phobia making it one of the more common phobias.
Claustrophobia Causes:
Claustrophobic people often are prone too other types of anxieties and panic attacks, so there could be a genetic and biological factor to the phobia. Also, people who experience spatial distortion are more likely to have Claustrophobia as they have an exaggerated perception of personal space. As with many phobias, traumatic experiences in one's past can play a massive role in developing Claustrophobia. If someone accidentally got stuck in a lift for instance, this could easily create a mindset for Claustrophobia. Also children who were punished by being locked in rooms or had to stay in small space for an extended time tend to develop Claustrophobia.
Claustrophobia Symptoms:
As mentioned, Claustrophobia has its roots in the feeling of being unable to escape or trapped. This could also relate to the subconscious fear of being 'buried alive.' People with Claustrophobia usually experience both extreme mental and physical symptoms that range from irregular breathing that can result in hyperventilating or a choking sensation, rapid heartbeat and sweating, feeling sick, trembling and even fainting.
The person might experiencing racing thoughts surrounded by the fear of death and feel disorientated and might struggle to discern what is real and what is not. This might cause the more extreme Claustrophobics to lash out physically trying to kick or punch their way out of the small space they feel trapped in.

Why You Should Get Help:
Phobias are never pleasant and having a panic attack is a horrible experience. Having Claustrophobia can be especially limiting because of how many smaller spaces we use on a day to day basis that might trigger an anxiety attack. This would limit where a person with Claustrophobia goes and who they see. A Claustrophobic might never fly on an airplane to travel or see friends or family. They might even avoid traveling in cars or on trains. They could suffer going to different floors of buildings because they are afraid of the lift. This could be especially bad if the person with Claustrophobia has a disability that does not allow them to use stairs.
A person might rarely go out in fear of the embarrassment of having a panic attack and avoid people altogether which then makes them very isolated This in turn will deteriorate the mental health of someone suffering from Claustrophobia.
