Comparing Paranoia In Fast And Furious And The Walking Dead

The allure of fear is interesting for some people for several reasons. These people have another perspective of how they react when they see something scary or read it. They don’t react the same way as other people that don’t like scary things. Other people like to be scared. Some people motivate others by saying to them they are not so scary and everything that is happening there is not real, since they use fiction elements, like characters, details and scenarios. These scary elements have real details but also have scenarios that are not real, this means it is magical realism. This thought of liking scary things is a physiological problem. Scientist make an article showing proof that there is a big pole of people that like scary scenarios.

Fear is a powerful human emotion. It can make you do things you wouldn’t normally do, like risk taking and bad choices. Fear can spike your adrenaline. For example if someone was to lift a car off a run over child, that would be caused by adrenaline, which is caused by fear. According to several studies done by physicians

Fear is a chemical chain reaction in the brain. It is in the part of the brain that allows us to communicate and to speak with other people ("Layton, Julia"). The idea is an autonomic response in the brain with many parts of the brain involved. Fear starts with a scary stimulus and ends with a fight or flight response telling the human to fight back or run away. It starts with two processes the quick and messy way, and the clear and slow way ("Layton, Julia"). The quick way is when you are panicking and out of breath and the clear way takes a while and is when you calm down and realize it was nothing. Both of the processes happen simultaneously ("Layton, Julia"). The brain uses your blood stream and nervous system to create fear. When your muscles tighten and your heart races, you are probably in a state of fear. Without fear you would walk into traffic or pick up poisonous snakes. Fear saves our lives ("Layton,

Fear is an emotional response made by a threat, which causes a change in brain and organ function, as well as behavior. It is an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that something or someone is dangerous and likely to cause paint or threat. Usually fear is caused by something traumatizing that has happened in one’s life. In order to overcome fear, you have to face it. Avoiding fear prevents people from moving forward and standing up to fearful things help move past that fear. (Towey)

Fear is something that large amounts of people have encountered at least once at some point in their lives. It has been said to have caused a variety of outcomes, many of them being largely negative. Therefore, it is a common human response to react to fear by counteracting it with positivity and/or success. The idea people have of what fear is depends on the person. In the article “How Fear Works”, for example, fear is defined as a “chain reaction in the brain that starts with a stressful stimulus and ends with the release of chemicals” (Layton 1). The website “Psychology Today” defines fear another way, calling it “a vital response to physical and emotional danger” ("Fear Paranoia”). There are several other definitions people have on the

Everyone has some sort of fear or something they are scared of. Fear is a strong emotion that compels people to think and act in response to it. Fear is also unique in the fact that everyone has a different fear, and a different way of dealing with them. Some may say can help you survive, but we don't live in the caves anymore. Fear is a harmful emotion because it can cause paranoia, it can limit your potential, and it can make you prejudice.

One time we went to the movie to watch a scary movie that just came out and after that movie we were so spooked and scared and after that we never watch another scary movie after that, later on that day we went and none of us could sleep because we always thought someone was coming in the house because all we heard noises coming from downstairs of the house. These are the types of fears brought up in Stephen King’s article “Why We Crave Horror.” Stephen King’s claims are true because we read horror stories or watch horror movies to get over the fact of being frightened ; his claims help people get back to be normal and help them release anger and emotions.

What causes fear? Often times fear is caused by ones imagination. This is evident in the Edgar Allan Poe short story “The fall of the house of usher” and the movie “The sixth sense” directed by Minight shyamalon. Imagination over comes reason when people are afraid. Imagination overcomes reason when people are afraid.

Fear is both beneficial and dangerous. Fear offers restraints and withholds irrational acts. It hones alertness and survival instincts, such as adrenaline. If one is stuck in an unknown dark alley, fear is the instinct that compels them to run or take action. Fear also causes confessions. Fear of punishment, for example, would make a naughty child confess. However, fear can also induce paranoia. Instead of running, the person becomes paralyzed. Even though fear dispels unreasonable behavior, it also can cloud rational thought if that fear becomes a wild obsession. If someone is always focused on one thing because of fear, they lose sight of reality and their obsession could have harmful consequences. “The Tell-Tale Heart,” “the Pit and the

One time we had went to the movie to watch a scary movie that just came out and after that movie we was so spooked and scared and after that we never watch another scary movie after that , later on that day we went and none of us could sleep because we always thought someone was coming in the house all because we heard noises coming from downstairs of the house.

Fear isn’t something that just goes away easily, it lingers and haunts you until it kills you inside. It is an unpleasant emotion and it creeps up on you as darkness takes over daylight, slowly and then all at once. However, fear is like the monster under my bed or the one hiding in my closet. Instead of just hiding, my fear grows immensely every time I try to ignore it. A time that I experienced intense fear was when my house got robbed but it made me stronger than before.

A lot of people, like scary movies because of the adrenaline the movies make in them. A personal experience of an allure to fear that happened to me, is that I was watching a Netflix show which it is called, “Stranger Things”, this show is about how in a city some people are disappearing because of something they don´t even know, when I saw the monster that took the children I was a little bit scared, because the monster only shows up in forests.

Fear is a feeling created in a response to a perceived danger. Fear can produce pleasure, heighten awareness, be in the form of phobia, a fear of the unknown and an instinctual response to danger.

People who are suffering from paranoia have both mental and emotional disfunction when it comes to reasoning. Some people who are paranoid tend to have experienced certain rejections, or denied and repressed feelings. They most likely experienced certain events in their lives that led to them being extremely paranoid over things. So technically it is somehow a way of severe overthinking caused by previous traumatic events.

Imagine you are walking home from work last at night through a lake – cold wind flowing, no street light, full moon. Suddenly, a cat with dark brown color eyes appears in front of you. You stop, your heat rate increases dramatically and you start to sweat from toe to head. That sudden physical change is called fear. On the other hand, paranoia is a “Pervasive distrust and suspiciousness of others and a tendency to interpret others’ motives as malevolent.” (Piotrowski) It basically means that it is an emotional stage where one’s don’t trust anyone and everything around them is there to cause them harm. One of the main reason fear and paranoia are different because having paranoia is life treating whereas, fear is encountered by living thing at least ones in their life time. In my opinion, paranoia cannot be considered fear synonym because fear is viewed as a part of all living things whereas, paranoia is a set of mind where “everything around in there to cause you a harm”.
