Mine is losing my parents. What's yours and how do you deal with it? Does it consume you or you do handle it pretty good?

My worst fear at the present time would be losing my mother. She has been an alcoholic/substance abuser for 8 years, and still refuses to seek help. I don't see her lasting another 3 years...it really affects me and my ability to function normally every single day. I've tried my best to help her, and so have so many others..but I'm afraid that it's up to her now..I just wish I had faith in her.

My worse fear is not ever getting well. Ive been sick for 5 yrs and Im trying to beat it. It IS reversible, but sometimes I dont deal well at all. Yes, it consumes my life. It sux, but what can ya do?
I guess my 2nd worse fear would be losing my parents too.

I suppose if I had a read fear right now, it would be that I would die before my teenage daughter learns how to handle her depressive episodes. She has a hormone imbalance and last year was a very rough year. I don't trust doctors anymore, so I have been helping her with alternative ways. She's not mature enough to have good reasoning abilities, and well, I just want to be able to help her get through her teen years and see her mature. If I were to die, then I'm afraid there'd be no one to be her life coach while she is going through this.

losing the one i love. My fear does not consume me but it does run thru my head more then it should. I have gotten better tho and I don't think about it so much. Truthfully....I pray a lot. It is the only thing that helps. I have lost a lot of people in my life and I think thats why I am so scared.

I always feared the ability to keep food on the table for my son. I have never been poor but the fear consumed me, until I accepted Christ into my heart. I am not wealthy, by no means, but I no longer fear my son going hungry.

i have 2 and i'm not sure which is worse.
1. losing my love- i probably couldn't live without him, (i know i wouldn't be alive if it weren't for him...enough said)
2. life-what is going to happen to me? and will it all really be okay? i'm more scared of life than death.
the first one consumes me pretty well, i can't bear the thought of losing him, he's such a kind and beautiful person. i would truely be lost without him
the second one doesn't consume me as much beacause i know that i have my love and that when things go wrong he's always going to be there for me to pick me up when i'm feeling down.
thta's me in a nutshell...a real BIG nutshell... :)

Mine was losing my parents. As I've gotten older though...I can't even type what my fear is now; all I can say is that I agree with the first two answerers. I don't even know how to press the keys to type it.

My most disabling fear is needle phobia-it might not seem like a big deal, but I've put off having any medical procedures and testing done because of it and just thinking about it makes me feel nauseous and light-headed

I lost my brother that was a fear. I had three misscarriages that was a fear. There are many fears in life. You just hide from them. its hard to deal with but thats life. We were put here for a reason and i think one of them is to face our fears

I'm sure it will sound silly to some, but my worst fear is being around my peers and rejection. I have pretty bad social anxiety so I'm constantly afraid people are going to make fun of me/think I'm stupid. It's awful and I don't have any friends because of it. So yep, that's my worst fear.
