{{cquote|Exposure therapy may help someone deal with their fear of eternity. Of course, you can’t really exposure someone to eternity - but you can expose them to the idea of it. Therapists may ask patients to think about eternity, then implement breathing techniques or other practices to help calm them down as they reflect on eternity. As they continue this therapy, the patient will become calmer, faster, while thinking about infinity.}}
