Asking For Self, Female 22, karachi
I have a fear of dolls . I never played with dolls. I am quite brave like I can sleep alone and I don't have fear of darkness or any animal but I have fear of doll(blinking eyes doll) if the doll is placed at any place so I don't feel any anxiety but if someone asks to touch doll so I cry and hide in the room and didn't open the door until I make sure that there is no doll myself. please tell me what should I do? everyone laugh at me. I try my best to not be scared of dolls as they can't do anything but still I cant able to overcome my fear. and please tell me from which specialist should I discuss my issue? should I consult with a psycatrist or psychologist? is there any treatment?

It is treatable for sure. I need to take intake session to gather more information from you, so we get straight to its treatment.
For that you need to take an appointment for one on one video session. You will feel the difference.
