As a consequence, pedestrian deaths are going to skyrocket.

Maybe the kid on his loud four-wheeler can overcome his fear of riding in traffic.

Fear, both justified and not.

I’ll keep my fear, thanks. I’d rather remain a human being with choices and consequences, a moral or an immoral person.

I didn’t read the article. I just wanted to point out that there’s probably a great Chuck Norris joke in here somewhere.

Puts a whole new meaning on the NO FEAR decals rednecks love to wear.

adults who suffer each year from persistent, debilitating fears - including hundreds of soldiers returning from conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan

One stands in awe of such impartial reportage.

From what the returning soldiers I know have told me, their greatest fear upon returning to the US is the completely rational fear of being plagued by idiots wasting their time.

I will not fear. Fear is the mind killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Unfortunately the side-effects of treatment include diffuse dread, apprehension, anxiety, doubt, panic, horror and terror.

I thought FDR was working on a cure for this during WWII?

My fears have gotten progressively worse since childhood, but I am also afraid of new drugs now because of what some have done to me. I'm nearly housebound at this point but can go to restaurants without doing carryout again, if I force myself I can do some hard things, then it exhausts me afterwards.

None of the drugs I have taken so far affected my moral choices, and a large number have been tried on me.

I made my worst moral choices when I was not on any prescription drugs, in part, as an escape. In some people, yes, it can be a catastrophe. I have seen lives transformed when they match the right drug to the person. Wish it could happen for me. Wait. I decided I don't want to get my hopes up again that I will ever get better and just learned to live with it.

But if they get this one right, it might help a lot of people. Right now they treat PSTD mostly with SSRI's, and my system cannot handle them, they were finally convinced I was not faking that. They rev me up so that I get into an agitated state and feel like climbing the walls. It is actually physically painful as well as the emotional pain.

“Conversely, the learned fear persisted when the kinase’s activity was increased in the hippocampus,....” I have a learned fear of hippos on my campus.

Now what do we do with.....

“We have nothing to fear;but fear itself.”

I’m afraid this is way tooo confusing!!!!!

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Fear is not necessarily a bad thing.
