Suffering from Apotemnophobia?

What is Apotemnophobia?

Apotemnophobia - Fear of persons with amputations.

Paradoxical intention - This is a method in which a phobic person is encouraged to greatly exaggerate his fear and the circumstances in which the phobia occurs in order . to, paradoxically, diminish the power of the phobia.

This is a light-hearted approach, the exaggeration often being to a ridiculous extent designed to generate humour, and is generally used in conjunction with other therapies.
