Irrational fear is uneccesary.

Real fear is helpful.

I ride extreme mtn bike trails. I try to remind myself to keep a healthy fear (respect) of the terrain

I see fear when its not there daily. I am on meds but these thoughts are just intrusive. Just a nuisance.

Fear can be crippling, but it can also let you know something needs to change. It can protect you.

I think some fear is necessary to make people cautious.

Idk why some people fear more than others?

Maybe because they have a lower coping threshold for stress.
