Hi I worked with a lady for 3 years now and we became friends out of work as well but there is something getting in the way. She never wants to go out at night because she is scared of cats and she doesn't leave her house at night because then it's dark and she can't see if there are cats. This doesn't seem so normal to me because she is 29 married with kids and this is really affecting her life. To the point that if a cat appeas she runs away. She yells at her kids if there is a cat and they don't get in the car fast enough... does this sound like a real problem and I should encourage her to go to therapy? This is really affecting her life and her relationships |
