Our friend 'fear'

When we deny afraid their intensity is doubled because the survival instinct can not be deprived of it.

Denial is a defense mechanism by which we impose on our perception contrary to an order that is running. We say 'This is not happening to me me, "" I thought I was going to lose a lot more, "" Wanting is power', where the outrage at injustice beyond us, maybe say "must have done something" (the unjustly accused).

Denial is a powerful stimulus to ignore because this way we can deny facts, opinions, certainties, contrary to our desire.

Instead, have a wealth of information is like having a box of tools to solve many problems, defects, cracks.

From my point of view is a "tool" especially useful to know, know, be aware, that humans have fears.

Realistic fears suffer when we perceive a persistent fall of the aircraft that transports us imaginary fears and suffer when we assume that something is dangerous but we have no evidence of them.

Fear is a feeling that nature installed to supplement self-preservation. People who have weakened the defensive reaction is likely to suffer unfortunate accidents.

It seems a serious error to deny the feelings of fear and yet our culture makes us feel embarrassed us.

All indicate that recognize, accept, assume, that fear is a feeling characteristic of a mentally healthy person allows us to live with it. On the contrary when we deny the bad idea (because society makes fun of our "cowardice" for example), the intensity of the fear is doubled because the survival instinct warns us that "we are playing without goalkeeper ', ie shall increase the intensity of fear for equal work despite denying it.
