Do not blindly "fear of fear" with science

When people hear about AIDS, many people will avoid or even fear their own name, which leads to a disease called "fear of AIDS."

Xiaojuan (a pseudonym) is a university student who loves the beauty and also likes to take a selfie. One day, a friend circled someone to purchase Korea's imported “face-to-face” needle. She couldn’t wait to purchase a few nets and ran to the beauty salon for injection. After the end, Xiaojuan found that the small pin-eye of the cheek was bleeding, which frightened her and worried about it. . After a week, the traces of the pinholes gradually disappeared, and Xiaojuan resumed her appearance. However, Xiaojuan had new fears—fear of AIDS. The school had had publicity and education activities on the transmission of AIDS. Xiaojuan remembered that blood transmission was also one of them. Reminiscent of the beauty salon environment, Xiaojuan faintly worried: "whether the beautician mistakenly used someone else's used syringe, or did not do disinfection?" Concerns, fears continue to surround her, Xiaojuan slouched all day. After searching for the symptoms of AIDS on the Internet, she began to feel feverish. From time to time, her body temperature could be normal. She then began to feel that the skin was going to have a rash, her breathing was not smooth, she was nauseous and she was dizzy. In the past six months, Xiaojuan went to major hospitals in the infection department and the city's disease control center to conduct AIDS tests almost every two weeks. The results were all negative. Although the doctor repeatedly explained that she was not sick, her worries were not. So reduce. She entered the AIDS theme bar, QQ group, found that the group rumors that there is a medically invisible "invisible AIDS", but also firmly believe that he is sick, since then unhappy.

Dr. Zhu Lijun, a psychological clinic of the Xiamen Medical College Affiliated Hospital (Xiamen No. 2 Hospital) explained that every year, Xiaoyao’s patients with fear of asthma are present. Although every examination shows that there is no disease, the patient continues to doubt the results of the report. Zhu Lijun introduced that fear of AIDS is not equal to AIDS, treatment is also very different from AIDS, to psychotherapy.
