Psychologists classify phobias, such as stress disorders, as exaggerated anxiety events experienced by individuals who are unable to overcome the fear of external stimuli, although no threat may be associated with these stimuli. The causes of possible phobias are extremely diverse, mainly because phobias are inherited or developed by the patient's mind. The other category includes reward phobias that can be placed between hereditary and cumulative diseases. The development of reward phobia is because patients avoid repeated threats, and whenever he succeeds in avoiding threats, his phobia is rewarded and increased at the same time.
Hereditary phobia is characterized by patients borrowing specific behaviors while witnessing terrorist incidents of another person [usually an important relative or friend] and begin to recognize the same reasons as real threats. Hereditary phobia is induced in some way. For example, parents with social phobias instill in their children the idea that they must take self-defense when socializing. In addition, experts point out that genes may make a significant contribution to such behavior and often witness that such terrorist events may activate these genes.
Statistics show that nearly 40% of phobias are hereditary, while the remaining 60% are caused by stress and trauma. Many of these traumatic events occur in childhood and leave a serious mark in the psychology of adults. Every time he has a similar experience, they will act unreasonably.
In general, hereditary phobia does not mimic a developed disease. Instead, empathy can simply explain this “borrowed overreaction”.
