The Mysterious Disappearance of the Titan Submersible.
TL;DR
The search for a missing submersible vessel has triggered feelings of claustrophobia in many people. However, experts say that the anxiety is not necessarily a sign of claustrophobia, but rather empathy for the stranded crew. Claustrophobia affects 2-12.5% of the population, and most sufferers are female. The fear becomes a phobia when it affects daily life. Claustrophobia is a learned behavior, and lasting improvement can happen through talk therapy, prescription medications such as antidepressants, and exposure therapy.
