Pero la muerte es inevitable, el cuerpo f\u00edsico llega a un punto en el que las c\u00e9lulas comienzan a morir y el funcionamiento de cada \u00f3rgano se vuelve m\u00e1s lento y se detiene. Es una forma simple de explicar la muerte.\r\nEl miedo a la muerte puede pasar de un temor saludable que obliga a cuidarse y no exponerse a hechos violentos a un nivel mayor y convertirse en una fobia. Algunas personas comienzan a tener ataques de p\u00e1nico que les provocan aceleraci\u00f3n del ritmo cardiaco, sudoraci\u00f3n, sensaci\u00f3n de desvanecimiento. El evento puede ocurrir ante situaciones rutinarias como tomar el transporte subterr\u00e1neo, viajar en avi\u00f3n, ir a una revisi\u00f3n m\u00e9dica, conducir el auto. El miedo a la muerte puede ser aprendido, resultado de un duelo no resuelto, causado por un tab\u00fa en la familia o por traumas personales. Se convierte en un problema cuando la persona comienza a evitar salir de casa, ir a reuniones sociales porque algo le puede pasar, a encerrarse cada vez m\u00e1s alej\u00e1ndose de la realidad.\r\nLos s\u00edntomas m\u00e1s comunes en los casos de Tanatofobia son ansiedad al hablar de la muerte, estar muerto o morir; angustia y necesidad de controlar cualquier dolencia por miedo a que se complique y provoque la muerte; focalizaci\u00f3n exagerada en el tema de la muerte; n\u00e1useas, palpitaciones y otros signos f\u00edsicos de un ataque de p\u00e1nico.\r\nCuando una persona presenta fobia a la muerte requiere ayuda profesional. Un psic\u00f3logo o un psiquiatra son los especialistas que se ocupan de tratar las fobias en pacientes que est\u00e1n en riesgo. Una atenci\u00f3n temprana puede ser eficaz para ayudar al paciente a retomar el contacto con la realidad mediante una exposici\u00f3n gradual al tema de la muerte. Los especialistas pueden recurrir a diversas terapias, entre las que se encuentran las t\u00e9cnicas de relajaci\u00f3n que ayudan a combatir la depresi\u00f3n y estados de angustia que esta fobia provoca en los afectados.\r\n","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4609\/"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post\/"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5\/"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments\/?post=4609"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4609\/revisions\/"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6050,"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4609\/revisions\/6050\/"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4335\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/?parent=4609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/?post=4609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/previsionmontevecchio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags\/?post=4609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
