Decidophobia is the fear of decision making. Moreover, most often it applies precisely to important, significant decisions. But there are people for whom it is generally difficult to make any decision, regardless of the degree of its importance.
This position of a person creates many difficulties in life. After all, everyone should be motivated for certain accomplishments by the confidence that his plans will come true. And if you don't have the strength to decide on their implementation, then life seems to pass by.
The causes of this phobia usually come from childhood. It is possible that the child in the family had hyper-custody on the part of adults. That disaccustomed him, in the future, to make independent, balanced decisions.
Sometimes a person with decidophobia adapts in life in such a way as to shift the responsibility for making decisions onto other people. For example, he finds himself an energetic, strong-willed partner, and completely trusts him in the conduct of family life. And in the service, he can be a good, and even an excellent performer under the supervision of an authoritarian leader.
But internal problems also need to be resolved. And the decidophobe is ready to solve them in his own way, and sometimes in a very specific way. It can be endless trips to fortune-tellers, psychics. After all, they are capable of giving ready-made answers to burning questions. Or a person, imperceptibly for himself, sits tightly on horoscopes, believing that the forecast of the stars is exactly what one can certainly believe.
Also, decidophobes are very influenced by fashion, they are often carried away by various religious movements. They tend to join various parties and social movements.
The most interesting thing is that in order to decide on changes and correction of this state, a person also needs to make a decision, which he is often unable to do. And this is where the support of friends and close people is especially important for him.
With the help of psychotherapy, it is possible to significantly improve the condition characteristic of this phobia. This process is quite lengthy and requires the intervention of a qualified specialist. Necessarily with the help of relatives of the decidophobe, their soft control over timely and regular visits to consultations.
