what are you afraid of?

what are your fears? how do you deal with them?
i believe most men have a difficult time admitting
that they have fears. women seem more open and
honest about anxiety and fear. i guess this is natural
but none the less, unfortunate.

fear is the corroding thread in our fabric that
short circuits our ability to move forward and it
stops us from realizing our full potential. until
it is recognized and dealt with, it wields a lot of
destructive power.

i believe a lot of folks here are on some form of an
acknowledged path of change. changing your body
through fitness is usually an indication that something
deeper is cooking.............
 
My biggest fear is something happening to my daughters which I can't control. I have a fear of feet also and can't stand someone to touch me with them!! ugh!
 
i am afraid of spiders. i have fears concerning my kids and their well being.

i have a fear of being old, alone and incapacitated - that would be hellish.

i fear the IRS
 
Fear #1 - That my kid gets hurt or something when im not around.

Fear #2 - That the economy gets even worse and the potential of losing my job.

I deal with #2 by continuously adding value in myself to my company.

ditto.

Being poor in general.

I deal with it by working my ass off.
 
Deep down? a fear of not being good enough. It's probably the(initial) reason i've worked so hard to evolve every aspect of my being.
You're absolutely right about changing your body usually meaning something deeper, LB.

I've been conditioned to fear failure as a result of my childhood, which i've had a hard time getting over but have done much better with as i've gotten older.


i don't fear anything outside of me persay....except snakes. I fuckin HATE snakes
 
I also think that I have been really lucky and that some day all of the bad things I have done will come back to me - like all at once. That day is going to suck.

For fuck's sake, WHY???

We have these huge-ass orb web spiders outside my house. I walk into their webs every goddamn morning on my way to my car. I'm sure my neighbors piss themselves watching me flail around like a fucking retard, trying to get the web off me, lol.

These are terstrial spiders. They don't really spin much web, they tackle their prey. Its fun to watch. I don't like small poisonous spiders either. Mine look big and scary. But they are completely harmless or I wouldn't have them in my house. My wife hated them at first too. But now she's OK with them.
 
I'm worried of an early death. I do all this shit now to make/save money to set myself up for the future, I'm afraid I won't be alive to enjoy it.

That and spiders/random bugs in general crawling on me while I'm asleep. :worried:
 
amputations, losing teeth, dying, being alone, spiders and snakes

all very primitive fears residing in our caveman brain.

i am a recovering alcoholic \ drug addict. early in my recovery i

found out that alcoholism and drug addiction are extreme fear

responses. i had prided my self as a guy with brass balls. i would

take risk and put my life on the line like most take a breath of air.

little did i know that i my actions were driven by fear. my tough

guy image was a facade to hide my terror. as a result of self awareness

and plenty of work, my fears no longer drive me but they do show up

now and again when i feel threatened or overly stressed.

the trick is to be self aware and empathetic. putting yourself in

the other guys shoes, especially when you vehemently disagree

with him, is a fear buster. chances are his fears have overwhelmed

him as well. i still hate fucking spiders. had a pal with a bird eater.

i took one look at that monster and i got dizzy and nauseous.

plus don't you just hate mustard too? Like on sandwiches and stuff?

Layinback:
Me? Hmm...to tell you the truth, I'm so afraid of a certain thing that I won't even talk about it because it makes me cry IRL. What I'm afraid of is something that is already happening. Not trying to be mysterious but I just can't go there right now. :worried:

Besides that ONE thing I'm pretty fearless I think!

Im afraid of snakes and mice. terrified.
Im also afraid of planes crashing out of the sky but not when Im on the plane, but rather when Im onthe ground watching.
 
spiders, snakes, of course something happening to my kids, something life threatening happening to me in public, something life threatening happening to me when i'm completely alone, coming home to find my house has burnt down.

Holy crap! How could I forget about planes. I throw up on almost every flight. Not out of sickness but sheer terror. :worried:
 
The Cheflings being in pain...


slugs freak me out but I wouldn't call it 'fear'...



... ending my days without being with someone I love so deeply that I don't fear the end of my days.
 
1) life (fear it more than death)
2) flying
3) not being able to take care of myself
4) fainting in public since it's happened to me before
5) never being cured of my illness

When I was a teen, I was fearless.

LB, My full potential has never come to fruition due to my fears. No amount of therapy gets one over their fears, only facing them does.
By the way, what we fear most ususally is put in our path. Life is about free movement and a fear is a blockage. The universe makes us face our fears so we can be free.

yes I hate mustard.
 
My greatest fear is losing my physical and mental abilities. I want to take a dirts nap before I become helpless and senile.

I am scared of heights. They scare the shit out of me.

I fear my future children being taken from me in some horrible way.

i have an inclination to what that is..........just my intuition.

and yes, i HATE mustard too. mustard and mayo...i cringe at the thought. i'm anti condiments
 
I freak out thinking about being trapped! Like in a fallen building or cave. I don't have a problem with tight spaces like tanning beds or closets , just the thought of not being a ble to move. When I see someone trapped on TV or a movie I have to turn away or I can't breath.

people who say they are afraid of heights I don't think are really afraid of heights. I really think they are afraid of falling. That's the fear....falling to your possible demise.

when i was in the joint i met an old black dude with 3 life without the

possibility of parole sentences. 3 counts capital murders and a hell

of a chess player and spade partner. he had faced the electric chair

and i asked him why he would choose the rest of his born days in this

hell hole over death. he said, "son, i don't mind dying....it's just the

idea of being gone so goddamned long that i don't like"
 
Railroad tracks
Spiders
I need to be completely closed in before I can sleep(closet doors MUST be shut and bedroom door)
I also feel scared and anxious if I sit with my back towards the door in a public place

why were you locked up?

i was watching a show last night about surviving hard core prison. some of those guys were seriously scary. they committed more murders in prison than what put them in.
 
changing your body means something deeper!!!

like what possibly!!!

I honestly don't know what I'm afraid of, I usually like to tackle my fears..
 
I fear most for my kids. I have been through shit, can get through shit, etc. However, my kids are my world.
I fear that this world will become so contorted that my kids won't have the chances that they deserve. I fear what would happen to them if I were to die while they are still young and still need me. I fear that the world will keep going down the shitter and my kids won't be able to accomplish all that they will set out to. I fear for them 24/7 I wonder about them 24/7..If I could just have a crystal ball and know that they will be ok, then maybe I could be put at ease.
Obviously I fear much more than all this, however this tops it all.
 
i used to deeply fear growing old. . .until i hooked up with my wife. . .now, i know it'll be ok as long as she's there with me. . .now, i only fear growing old without her if something would happen. . .
 
1. That I'll turn into the worst of both of my parents, meaning I'll be violent and emotionally withdrawn. My dog has never been hit aside from when we play, but I'm really afraid I'll pull back and just not be there for my daughter. I never notice when I get this way and I lose sleep over it.

2. Failure.

3. Sharks.

it's not the end all be all but it'll set you in the right direction.

you seem to be accutely aware of and concerned about your negative potentials. . .i know that i don't know you very well. . .but, i'm betting that you're going to be a pretty good dad. . .you'll make mistakes. . .we all do. . .the trick is recognizing them, taking responsibility for them and striving to do better in the future. . .as long as you love and care, you'll do a good job. . .we learn many things from our parents. . .i'll bet that one of the important things that you learned is to not make the same mistakes. . .

Are u serious?!!?!?!!!
I only know 2 women that I trust as much as my male friends. Actually, my wedding was funny because I didn't have brides maids. I had brides' men.
I DID have a female as my maid of honor...but she's hella cool and I trust her more than anyone. She was on my side with 8 men. The pics were cool.
I know men don't usually trust women with mostly male friends. ALL of us aren't so bad.
I don't like girlie chit chat, I like sports(playing more than watching), and I have major issues with my mother(prolly might be why I have a hard time trusting females...but I'm working on it).
Actually, I can be a great friend :heart: and am not "scandalous"....as long as I don't hate you. :evil:
