Fear of suffocation 2.Choking. Either myself or others, especially babies. 3. Deep ocean. That’s the fear of the unknown I suppose. Not knowing what is about to take a bite out of my leg at any second. 4.Being swept out to sea and drowning. 5. Anything terrible happening to anyone I love. Such as, illness, accidents and any of the above list. 6. Not having control of situations, such as being in hospital and anesthetics. 7. My partner dying and leaving me alone 8. The death of my dog. 9. Dying a protracted death in pain. 10. Pain. How do I handle fear? Usually in the past I’d try not to overthink and just DO IT! I have done many of the things which could have led to the above list. I’ve scuba dived in deep water. I’ve abseiled off a cliff. I’ve fed many babies and dealt with many choking incidents. I’ve been in a few road accidents I’ve had serious surgeries I’ve gone through many dog deaths. What am I not afraid of? Death. Heights. House fires. |
