What are the methods to deal with claustrophobia?

Dealing with such condition requires decipline and willing to over come it in order to do thatyou must follow a well known list of steps :
1.Flooding – this is a form of exposure treatment, where the person is exposed to their phobic trigger until the anxiety attack passes. The realisation that they have encountered their most dreaded object or situation, and come to no actual harm, can be a powerful form of therapycounter-2.Conditioning – if the person is far too fearful to attempt flooding, then counter-conditioning can be an option. The person is taught to use specific relaxation and visualisation techniques when experiencing phobia-related anxiety. The phobic trigger is slowly introduced, step-by-step, while the person concentrates on attaining physical and mental relaxation. Eventually, they can confront the source of their fear without feeling anxious. This is known as systematic desensitisation
3.Modelling – the person watches other people confront the phobic trigger without fear and is encouraged to imitate that confidence
4.Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) – the person is encouraged to confront and change the specific thoughts and attitudes that lead to feelings of fear
5.Medications – such as tranquillisers and antidepressants may also be helpful in addition to psychological treatment.
