Can Megalophobia be triggered by open spaces?
Yes, Megalophobia can be triggered by open spaces for some individuals. The vastness and lack of boundaries in open areas can evoke a sense of vulnerability and fear. The fear may be related to the perceived exposure, a fear of getting lost or disoriented, or the overwhelming nature of open spaces. Addressing the triggers associated with open spaces is an important aspect of therapy for Megalophobia. By gradually exposing individuals to open spaces and implementing coping strategies, therapists can help them manage their fear response and increase their comfort levels in such environments.
