I personally believe that there is no such thing as "stupid" in terms of fear or phobias.

I have a somewhat arachnophobia which means I 'm afraid to be near a spider, no matter how small it is. To some people it might be stupid or funny because I am obviously the bigger one. However my fear is my fear. I freak out whenever I see one.

I love your answer ,but I guess I meant an abnormal fear like mine. A fear that is. Not common....

The fear of heights. It's really annoying to have :P

I know what you mean. I had to hold on to the bottom of a train bridge theat was at the least 300 feet above the land Bellow as a train went by. It was hard time hold onto a bridge that shook as if an earthquake was active. Ever sense I have had a hard time with higher places unless there is something to hold onto .... However I don't think this qualifies as a "stupid fear"

I guess you're right; maybe it's more like a rational fear. But mine kicks in a bit sooner than what would probably be rational :P

I hear ya!

can not eat much

Would you be willing to share with us the deeper part of your fear? Like why, and how you came to this fear?

Most everybody fears death to a degree. The individuals who assert generally are likely either unequipped for human feeling or deceiving themselves. It's customized science hard-coded into our DNA.

One thing individuals neglect to acknowledge is that it is valuable. Dread is a survival outlook developed through our predecessors over centuries. It prevents us from going for broke and helps keep you and your friends and family sheltered.

The issue with fear is that if left unchecked it can overpower the mind.

The secret to beating it is to compartmentalize it. Sherlock Holmes likes to call the mind a "cerebrum loft," where you hold furniture and must keep up a spotless domain. Dread unchecked is an extraordinary enormous mess that attacks and overpowers your loft.

You will likely pack it into a little zone of your cerebrum. Regard fear as data, and spotlight on what you have to do straightaway. You clearly are not going to cleanse it in profoundly unpleasant circumstances, however in any event you can set it to the side while you deal with the issue.

Even though fear of death to me is not a "stupid fear" it is an important fear. I also agree that a lot of our fears are encoded inside us. You haven't told us what you fear, is it fear of death for you?
