Some people are born with fears and others develop them from experiences. Personally, I am afraid of three things. My top fears are heights, darkness and public speaking.
My first fear is heights. Whenever I’m in a really high place, I get dizzy and uncomfortable. I also feel nauseous. These physical reactions are a result of my fear. The idea of falling from an extreme height drives my phobia of experiencing heights. I have always been afraid of heights my whole life. I avoid going to high places whenever possible.
My second fear is darkness. When it is dark, you can’t see anything that is around you. You also can’t see where you are going. This creates a very dangerous situation. The feeling of being vulnerable is the basis of this fear. There is no way of knowing what might be just beyond what you can see. Your mind creates all types of scary scenarios that are probably scarier than what is actually hiding in the dark.
My third fear is being in front of a huge audience. I am afraid of being in front of a huge crowd of people watching me. I get nervous and sweat when I’m in a situation like this. It makes me feel like each and every person is judging me and saying bad things about me. I avoid situations where I have to speak in front of many people. This is a fear that I would like to conquer because I know I will encounter things in life where I will need to address a crowd.
While many people share the same types of fears, I am especially scared of heights, darkness and being in front of a huge audience. I am sure that one day, I will overcome all of my fears. It is suggested that the best way to get over a fear is to confront it. My fears are all things I can confront and work through. Hopefully, this will allow me to no longer fear these things.
May it will help you.
