Journal About Fear

Deciding between the right decision or the wrong one begins with fear. Fear lives inside of everybody and some people enjoy it more than others. People are naturally attracted to fear, like in horror movies, dark literature, or haunted houses. Being afraid gives people the excitement they don’t normally get in their regular lives. People like to be afraid because of the raw adrenaline that pumps through their veins, the sound of their heartbeat going faster, and the feeling of pure excitement that comes with it.

Fear can control anyone. It can also control your life and affects your choices. My fear is heights. Every time when we have to go in a car garage or going millions of miles up a building my palms get sweaty, my heart starts racing, and start to have a panic attack. Some people have so much fear of something it can kill them. But my fear prevents me from going on a plane and riding current rides. I was never able to go to Florida or Hawaii because of fear of heights. But that is only one of my fears. Another fear that controls me is clowns. Clowns are devils in disguise cover with over use of makeup. They have this look on their face that I have no words to describe. They earn children’s trust just so they can come in the child’s home to kill

Known as a mental disorder a phobia is a persistent fear of a specific object, activity, or situation that leads to compelling desire to avoid it. Phobias tend to affect the way people live their lives, for example, their working and social environments, considering that they last for a very long time and are capable to cause intense psychological physical stress. It is considered today the most common mental and anxiety disorder in the United States (Matig Mavissakalian & David H. Barlow 1981 pp 2). There are many phobias such as: the fear of aging, fear of changing, fear of clowns, fear of getting fat, fear of being in closed spaces, etc.

Do all living things fear something? Those with minds surely have many and various fears, but even the simplest organisms must have fear, for fear is such a powerful feeling. Fear is all around us and is felt in every corner of the earth. Fear is the emotion or feeling that a living creature gets when its physical or mental life is interrupted by a change that causes the creature concern.

     All people have fears, whether they like to admit it or not. Their goal should be to get over those fears, whether they are of heights, swimming, speaking in front of large crowds or even something more minor. Getting over the most basic fears can mean so much to people and push them further until they have accomplished a lot of things that they want to get done. For example, someone who is afraid of heights should pick something (like bungee jumping) that has to do with heights and try it just to prove to himself that he has the ability to do anything that he allows himself to do. Sure, what he does might scare him, but how else can he ever expect to get over his fear? Another example, if a man wanted to ask a woman out on a date, he should ask her instead of sitting around and waiting for the love of his life to fall into his lap. Everything a person does

Heart pounding, heavy breathing, and pale skin are all triggered by what is known as fear. But what is fear, really? Is it simply just being afraid? Are there things that should be feared? Can a person control fear? These questions can be thought-provoking at best but they all lead to the same answer. Fear is what overcomes the mind when a person is put into a situation they don't know how to handle.

I am reading Fear by Michael Grant and I am on page 509. I finished the book. This book is about Sam, Caine, and their army fighting against the Gaiaphage and trying to free themselves from the horror of the FAYZ. All the Gaiaphage wants is Diana’s baby and Drake captures Diana and drags her to the Gaiphage’s cave every way he can before Caine or Sam can stop him. In the cave, Diana’s baby is born four months early, and she is forced to go with Drake to the edge of the barrier so the Gaiphage can be reborn. Finally, at long last the barrier is opened to the outside world where all the parents were waiting, but Sam and Caine still have a long war ahead of them. In this journal, I will be evaluating why Connie Temple and Abana Baidoo, adults from outside

The Gift of Fear was a great book and I would like to review it. First off, The Gift of Fear is old, but is a great book to this day. Although it was pretty good, it had some major flaws and had some run on sentences. It sometimes felt like it dragged on and there were some chapters that it really did not need in it…

Fear is a psychological disorder in our brains telling us there is a potential for pain. Practically every person has some sort of fear; some are common, such as fear of the dark, heights, flying and spiders. Though, one of the most universal fears in the world today is known as Thanatophobia, the fear of death. The reason for this is, as humans, we do not understand what dying really consists of, so we do not have the means to fathom what it truly is. If people understood death better, they would realize the truth about the fear: there is an irrational fear of death that should not exist.

I’ve always had fear of some adults and i’m afraid of when people are going to slap or harm you in anyway. Some kids flinch or are afraid when they think your going to harm them. You wonder why me? what did i do? What did i do to ever deserve this? Why the harmful threats? Why the marks? Where ever you go you feel unprotected waiting for someone to strike again! You’re scared to even go anywhere remembering what they did or what they said to you. When someone brings up a topic and reminds you what almost happened and what did happen. Tears form your eyes and you become speechless wanting to never live. You become more hurt everyday and your emotions change. You remember every threat they said to you! You get upset not wanting to talk to anyone

Fear is in the basis of our human nature that makes us who we are, it is something primal, and we can never rid ourselves from it. Not necessarily fear of monster or irrational things like closed spaces or heights. Here, we are talking about the fear of the unknown. When thrown into a place not of our own choice; where circumstances take place beyond our control. Where we don’t have the means to face forces much larger than us. We feel that fear, the feeling of being weak and powerless against the impossible. It is tempting to crumble succumb to the trials we face. When something is beyond our understanding, we descend to madness. Sometimes fear isn’t just about fearing monsters that lie under our beds, or the fear of offending our god or whoever

I used to be afraid of riding a roller coaster. When I was little I went on a little one. Then one year we went to Magic Springs and I was afraid to ride the big roller coaster. I didn’t ride it that day because it broke which made it even harder to ride it when we went in the fall, but I rode it anyway, first with my step dad and it turned out that the big roller coasters weren’t as bad as I thought. Then I went by myself 3 times. Then I went 4 more times with my cousin. This experience changed the way I thought about trying new thing forever.

I believe it will, unless you aren’t connected to certain things. As me, hunger was connected to me, when we had too much food we eat too much and when who have less, we eat less. What is the meaning of fear? Fear is the feeling induced to be afraid of someone or something. Fear isn’t like race or gender that you can quickly identify. I might be or might not be. It depend on what situation you were and I was. As I see now, most of children have cell phone at the age of 8 or 9, not in my case. It might not be in your case. I feel afraid of using cell phone that I might miss use. For, your case, if you don’t have cell phone it would be boring to sit down in a place for hours and hours. I don’t feel afraid of stranger, I believe not in your

Fear. Such a strong emotion that many of us feel everyday. Without fear the world would be a disaster but with it can make someones life a disaster. There are many people in today's society that let fear over rule them. These people let the fear over rule their whole life, making them not able to go outside because they are absolutely terrified by what is out that door. Then, there are people that are fearless, that rush into a burning house because they literally are not scared. One could say that most of the population is about right between those two lines.

Fear is the number one obstacle everyone must overcome at some point in their life. When the word fear is brought up I like to think of past situations that I experienced. There are many different methods used to conquer and learn from our fears such and exposure therapy, having a growth mindset, and thinking positive. For example, when I was younger fear was my worst enemy, School was the main reason that caused my fear. My fear of failure was my biggest obstacle growing up so I used that as a method to learn from my fears.
