The Fear Of Surgery

This can be divided into two ‘areas’, firstly the phobia of surgery in general, secondly the extreme fear some people experience when they learn that they need an operation themselves.

Some people live in constant fear that they may need an operation at some point in their life. For whatever reason (and it really doesn’t matter how the phobia began) they have learned to be very afraid at the idea of getting a disease or illness that may lead to an operation, or that they may have an accident that would result in some kind of surgical procedure being necessary.

Others, when learning that they are going to require an operation due to illness or an accident find themselves in a state of utter terror at the prospect. The fear is always based on a combination of fear of incapacitation/pain/death/being out of control (fear of anaesthesia).  This state of high anxiety is obviously not the best place to be in the days, weeks or months leading up to the surgery itself.
