Pacify Your Fear

Regardless of whether the fear is rational or irrational, you need to understand it in order to determine your further actions and generally be able to assess your state. Therefore, it is necessary to learn the main features of fear. Next, we will tell you about what forms of fear exist, and introduce you to the most common types.Did you know, for example, that 15 to 20 percent of all people experience phobias, and about 9% of Americans over the age of 18 have at least one specific fear? [Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, American Psychiatric Association Text Edition Fourth Edition].Generally speaking, the results of research by Chapman University [America's Top Fears, 2015] showed that 90% of all people in the world in general experience fear from time to time, and 40% of them face problems because of this fear. And the problems, in turn, can be very different, from mild psychological discomfort to depression and self-restraint, inability to achieve success in life and become happy, serious mental illnesses, and even suicide.Naturally, we are not talking about the fact that such by no means bright prospects await everyone. But in any case, if there is a desire to live a full life, expand your boundaries and develop, fears must be worked through.
