Fear

Fear is a natural, emotional response triggered by the perception of danger or threat. It activates a survival mechanism in the brain, releasing hormones like adrenaline that prepare the body to face or escape harm. While it helps protect us by alerting us to potential risks, fear can sometimes become excessive or irrational, leading to anxiety or phobias. It is a vital part of human experience, guiding decision-making and fostering caution, but managing it effectively is important for overall well-being.
