What are some of your fears and how do you overcome them?

For me its a fear of flying, I never use to have this fear but then I didn't fly for a good 5+ years, now I have a trip coming up and I am just so anxious about it. I am just a nervous about the whole thing. I am excited to go to the designation but just anxious about the whole getting there.

I am going to take some sleeping meds to help make me sleep on the flight.


Anyways share your fears and how you overcome them?

I have a genuine fear/anxiety of interacting with strangers. I've managed it over the years, generally in very poor ways, (i.e. self medication) but it's still around. I'm overcoming it with BHW, actually. I've been a lurker since 2012, but a few weeks back I decided to just jump in. I don't regret it, either. It's a bad ass community. It's got me to the point I'm ready to put my work out there without worrying about what people think. It's still absolutely terrifying, as most of my past work has been 100% anonymous, but it's a fear I welcome vs. one that handcuffs.

fear of death. When you have a family, that's the worst.

Fear of being flat broke with no expected income on the way. Always just keep hustling every day to try and find money from various sources.

I probably worry about income the most, but that's a pretty sensible fear I'd say. As for social anxiety (which is one of the most common fears), it's usually nothing a bit of meditation and exposure therapy can't solve.

I guess so.

I had fear of heigts too but i also worked for a while for a telecommunication company and got used to it after a while.. i had to climb onto base stations(steel lattice towers) .. i never was fan of it but i overcame it..

Still not huge fan of heigts though...if someone else suffers from it id recommend gradually trying to overcome it.. its just funny once you see how stupid that fear is
