Fear isn’t just something that stops you from skydiving or petting a dog. Fear hinders the pursuit of your dreams, robs you of peace of mind, and can even affect your overall mental and physical health.
“Sometimes fear is warranted and is a warning sign not to proceed and to protect yourself. Oftentimes, it is the creation of your mind,” says Mariel Diaz, a psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker.
When fear is prolonged and unwarranted, consider it enemy No. 1. Fortunately, you have everything within you to battle it head-on.
