In my case, it's more of the 'Getting In The Way Of Achievement' one. I'm extremely phobic of a few different things, and it can affect my everyday life ever now and then. But with that being said, it does keep me safe. At the same time, I don't enjoy being on the borderline of badly phobic and mentally sick.. Dx

| I see fear simply as something that prohibits you from doing things. It both prevents accomplishment and keeps one safe. You can't confine it to either category. |

To me, fear is simply a big wall that's rather difficult to get around.

Fear is a situation which all people want to avoid... Maybe there are some who loves it when playing horror games or watching movies... XP    |

I would say that fear is not much of an emotion in the regards of feelings but more of an instinct that everyone is born with. What it basicly does is to express the subcouncious feeling of a threat an thus making the individual realise that he is endagered. Therefore it is essential in the process of judging any kind of situation. The situation that fear keeps us from doing something stupid involves another aspect for me which is moral. This kind of fear is synthetical. Laws should be the best example to explain this. By threatining someone with consequences(e.g. punishments) for certain actions an artificial fear is inducted into that persons mind. The person starts to fear the consequences and thus avoids to take any kind of actions that would provoke those. As time goes on, the persons mind starts to not only fear the consequences but the action itself. Carrying it out is now declared as "Bad". The person succesfully developed an understanding for moral. As these morals are passed on to following generations, the initial fear of being punished is not present anymore. What we fear is the fact that we are breaking regulations. Therefore the fear was only used. Another nice exemplification of this process is the following experiment concucted on monkeys: http://www.scribd.com/doc/4603075/The-Experiment (...if you are interested in this kind of stuff) Fear that prevents one from achieving his goals is quite similiar. In this case the fear of hurdles in life is mostly created either by our surroundings or ourselves. I guess the initial cause of this fear is the imagined consequecens in the case of failing. I would say that this kind of fear isn't real because it is artificial. It can easly be manipulted by changing the declaration of what is good and bad. It is also very easy to overcome these fears and break the rules compared to physicaly damaging ourselves (simply compare the numbers of homocides and suicides in the world). That is why I would say that fear is only an instinct, nothing more or less. Anything else is the product of fear being used in order to regulate the behaviour of individuals. |

A physically weakening emotion that prohibits one to perform actions detrimental to the concept of Nature. What I mean by that is that Nature likes to keep us all on a tight leash. Fear is a weapon that enforces that control by not allowing us to perform actions that would be harmful to Nature's grand plan of Propagation and Evolution.  --> |

A crazy concept of someone being paranoid about things that could be overcome if will && effort are put on it. Things that are passed down through generations as something that needs to be feared but in reality just something really harmless. |

I don't know the exact words to answer this question. But in my case, I do view it emotionally. Something I don't want to see yet I keep seeing. Something that I tried to hide from, run away from yet it still showing no matter what. Fear is one thing that keeping me from moving on, I hated it yet can't escape it. Facing it doesn't mean you'll be success, there's consequence afterward if you choose to fight it but failed. |

Fear is fun. Hence horror films, roller coasters, thrill sports, etc.
If each mistake being made is a new one, then progress is being made.

Fear. It's something that reminds us that we had some inferior aspects in our lives. It set out a barricade for us, and it's for you to decide whether you want to overcome it or just keep in safe within the line. Like light and dark, fear is a coin with two sides. You fear on something, example, to get involved in a scenario that you're really afraid of to happened to you. And the other one is, being labeled as a cowardly human who can't run over it. But I don't believe in the quote that says: "Do not fear but fear itself." Remember, it's in our system, without it, we're jerks to our own judgement.  |

I believe that fear just a lack of information. We fear what we do not see, and if we don't know, we make up little images to fill in those blanks, and those images almost always end up scaring us. All people have the fear of the dark, right? It can be a phobia, or it can just be a feeling of paranoia. Well can anyone look at what is in the dark without any use of technology? This is where the notion of fear starts, in my opinion. We fear rejection from colleges and lovers and job offers because we DON'T KNOW if they will happen or not. We fear the supernatural because we don't know if they actually exist. We fear hell because we don't know if we will go up or down. Therefore, I do believe that it is the lack of information that causes fear when the thought of knowing that there is a lack of information becomes bigger. Of course, that doesn't mean everything that we don't know about causes fear. |
