What is the best thing to do when confronting your fears?

Answer 1

Confront them head on and deal with them directly. Do not hide from your fears. It also helps if you can find someone to talk with about them, someone who won't do anything but liosten and when the talking is done, then and only then, offer words of advice or encouragement. All too often our fears are based on imagined scenarios that are being played out in our heads rahter than being based on reality. As humans it can be difficult to see this from an objective viewpoint, so Having someone to talk to can GIVE you the objective insight that you are unable to see for yourself. Give that a try and see if that helps a bit.

I dunno...the very nature of my fears (dark creepy houses, basements, spiders bigger than a dime, my child running into the street as a speeding car approaches) are pretty much unconfrontable. Mostly because I take precausions to avoid these situations. What is it that you fear exactly? Death, addiction, an abusive spouse....the IRS? Think on it and then re-ask the question.

Answer 3

Do your best to remember that fear is an illusory energy founded in lack of knowledge. Once you face the fear, you have knowledge of it, and it no longer becomes fearful. Remember what fear stands for: False Evidence Appearing Real.
