You learn by experiencing all the things you fear. If you get hit enough it doesn't hurt as much anymore. If you lose someone you love that hurt stays with you. Confrontation you meet head on and deal with it. Keep an open mind, be fair, reasonable and honest and you will win all confrontations.

Fear is very powerful. I've gone through a lot of fear in my life. Also a lot of depression, and realized the two are related. A lot of people who have answered have mentioned God and that is true. Also, read some positive motivation books, surround yourself with positive friends. Maybe go on a weekend seminar...positive thinking, inspirational, spiritual....whatever.
Don't let fear overtake you. I know it is hard and scarey to break out of the chains that fear puts on us, but you can do this! You are already heading in the right direction by admitting the problem and seeking help. Get councilling if you feel you need it. There is no shame in that!
I just wish you the best in everything and my heart goes out to you. Remember fear is a liar, live the truth!

We, as humans , can never do away with fear , itself, but we can deal with it . You will always have the feeling of fear in your life , at dif. times( as per the flight or flight response) yet it (fear) can & will become minimized when out weighed by life and other instances of life's happenings which do make those fears you have now seem insignificant. Most of all , if you are a spiritual person , then that is what your faith is all about ; believing in... so if you have more than you can handle, you should seek help from some one you trust , maybe some one in your church , or in the medical profession , such as a therapist and/or a psychiatrist. These people are trained to help you , and should be able to help you...sometimes we get the best teaching , and help , out of our own experiances, and from our involvement with others....

The best way to deal with fears is to face them and crush them, then you realize it wasn't anything to worry about. Pain? well you can take pain medications to get rid of it. Confrontations? practice confronting people, do it with animals, like talk to them as if they were a person, before you confront a real person, make a list of what you want to say and just say it. Death is hard, I think we're all afraid of it. As you get older you accept it more because it's around you.
I'm a cancer survivor, I watched my best friend die of cancer too, took care of her, it was awful but after seeing that, I knew it was a blessing when she went. You havethink of the other person, if they are suffering then it's a blessing, you don't want them to suffer.
I used to be afraid of public speaking, I used to work in a bank and we had staff meeting that I dreaded, you'd be asked your opinion and I hated to have to give mine. After I had cancer it was easier, I thought what the heck, what am I afraid of, they are just people, I'll speak my mind and get things out in the open and to air and really when you talk to alot of people or confront people, it makes you feel better, you accomplish something and when you accomplish it you aren't afraid anymore.

First off know that the fear you face are all voices in your mind trying to make you feel anxiety! Know that you are not going crazy! Know that these voices are all lies from the father of all lies! Why believe the things that people have told you!? What about believing in yourself! I tell you Jesus and God says you have much to offer! We all face what you face now in your life at one time or another and people that say they don't fear something are lying because they just have a better way of hiding it! If you continue to let these lies from fear in your mind manifest than later it will only get worse and lead into depression! The only way to get out of this feeling of anxiety and fear, and to deal with all the voices you hear in your mind which are all the lies of the deceiver Satan and his evil spirits! Is to give it all to Jesus for he is the way, the truth and the life! It may be true you feel like you have one big impossible mountain to face with all of the fears that build up in ones life but the thing is you don't have to go at it alone! God and Jesus loves you! They want to give us gifts like strength,hope,faith and the Holy Spirit to over come such mountains in are lives! You have to look deep down inside of yourself to something God has already implanted there! It's ones heart and soul and if you believe God, (he will cast out your fear) and he will renew your spirit and hope! Isa 40:28-31. Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He (GIVES STRENGTH) to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary and young men stumble and fall; but those who (HOPE) in the Lord will Renew their (STRENGTH). They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Phil. 4:6-7. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present you requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your (HEARTS) and your (MINDS) in Christ Jesus. John 3:16. God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish (die) but have eternal life. 1 Peter 1:3-5. Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living (HOPE) through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade--kept in heaven for you, who through (FAITH) are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. So, I encourage you to pray to Jesus ask him to bring you hope and faith in him. So that the fear of Satan and his evil spirits will leave you in Jesus Name! And you will have a future with Hope instead of fear and doubt! In Jesus Name Amen

Death is just the beginning. Find God and have faith. Try a 12-step program.
