Small Space, Big Fear. Recognise This Feeling?
Claustrophobia is a specific phobia where enclosed or confined spaces trigger intense fear or anxiety. It can appear in everyday situations such as elevators, small rooms, or crowded places, often activating the body's fight-or-flight response.
In the DSM-5, it falls under Specific Phobia (Situational Type) within Anxiety Disorders. The fear is persistent, out of proportion to actual danger, lasts six months or more, and leads to avoidance or significant distress.
With the right therapy and coping strategies, it's possible to manage claustrophobia and feel calm and safe again.
Claustrophobia symptoms can show up as:
Your feelings are valid. Your struggles are seen. Your journey matters.

Stories of Hope
Hear from those who walked the path of recovery from Claustrophobia.

Ananya Sharma
Small rooms, elevators, and even crowded trains used to feel impossible for me. Claustrophobia was slowly shrinking my world. I’m truly proud of the progress I made with Sukoon's therapist. She encouraged me gently, helped me learn practical coping skills, and allowed me to move at a pace that felt safe. With time, the fear loosened its hold. Today, I can step into spaces I once dreaded, and it feels like a new chapter.
