　为帮助艾滋病患者消除恐惧心理，在桂希恩教授的建议下，武汉大学中南医院去年12月1日开设了艾滋病心理关怀门诊。该门诊负责人肖劲松没有想到，在开诊两个月接待的50余名患者中，九成是身体健康却总担心自己得了艾滋病的“恐艾”症患者。

　　大学生小王(化名)在与一个网友发生性关系后，不久出现发烧、浑身乏力等症状。他上网一查，觉得与艾滋病的早期症状十分相似，认为自己一定是得了艾滋病，虽然到医院做相关检查排除了染艾滋的可能，但他仍不相信，对生活几乎绝望，于是年初三来到这个门诊，希望解除恐艾心理。

　　肖劲松说，“恐艾”症是一种因强烈恐惧产生的心理障碍，伴随焦虑、抑郁等多种心理症状和行为异常。这是由于患者对艾滋病的临床表现和传播途径的片面认识和错误理解造成的。(记者陈媛 通讯员高翔）
