If the candidate's anxiety symptoms are already very serious, it is recommended to go to the psychological counseling room for formal treatment. Systematic desensitization therapy can be used: if the anxiety or terror caused by a stimulus is within the range that the patient can tolerate, after repeated presentations, he will no longer feel anxious and terrified about the stimulus, and the treatment goal can be achieved. Arrange the candidates' anxiety objects from small to large, and the patient can experience them one by one through imagination (the counselor will provide guidance) until the symptoms are relieved.
