The word claustrophobia is derived from the Latin claustrum, meaning a place shut in or a confined place, and from the Greek phobos, meaning fear. Persons who are affected by claustrophobia experience disruptive physical and emotional symptoms, particularly anxiety about enclosed spaces. The number of individuals who experience claustrophobia varies worldwide; in the United States, 12.5 percent of the population is estimated to be affected. More women than men tend to experience this phobia. Claustrophobia often develops in childhood, though it emerges later in life in some individuals. The reason behind the phobia may be unclear, but, in some instances, affected persons can recall a precipitating traumatic incident, such as being stuck in a stopped elevator. Children who are exposed to someone elses claustrophobic reactions may also develop claustrophobia. Risk of developing the condition tends to be increased among individuals who are naturally sensitive or inhibited or who tend to experience negative thoughts or feelings. In addition, there may be a genetic component to claustrophobia, in which a specific genetic mutation increases the risk of developing the phobia. Common triggers of a claustrophobic reaction include being inside elevators, tunnels, trains, airplanes, small cars, caves, basements, or rooms that are small and without windows or with windows that cannot be opened. The fear of being trapped and the fear of suffocating are often central to an experience of claustrophobia. Many affected individuals experience symptoms by simply thinking about being in an enclosed space. As persons with claustrophobia approach an enclosed space, their sympathetic nervous system may be activated in anticipation of the feared situation. This is made apparent particularly by stimulation of the fight-or-flight response, which causes an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. Individuals may experience sweating, trembling, tightness or pain in the chest, and difficulty breathing, and they may even show signs of hyperventilation (sustained abnormal increase in breathing). Chills, flushed skin, nausea, dry mouth, dizziness, headache, confusion, and a ringing in the ears may also occur. Severe anxiety, a feeling of dread, and a fear of losing control and dying may become overwhelming, causing some persons to experience an urge to flee the situation or to experience a panic attack. Some individuals are affected by claustrophobia throughout their lifetime. However, several treatments are effective in helping reduce the intensity of potentially claustrophobic experiences. Cognitive behaviour therapy and exposure therapy (also called desensitization therapy), in which patients are repeatedly exposed to an object or a situation that they fear, may help reduce anxiety. Some patients may benefit from taking an antianxiety drug (such as a benzodiazepine) or an antidepressant (such as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor [SSRI]) and from practices such as meditation.
