Anxiety or Fears
Michael Young
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, Mdiv, CRW
Anxiety is a mild form of fear. It can trigger the fight-or-flight response. In turn, the body can respond by becoming tense, preparing to attack or flee.
In the early days of human evolution, when there was a real threat of a tiger, it was a matter of survival to run. Now, when there is less of a physical threat, the adrenaline starts building, the cortisol starts releasing, but there may be no place to go. That's why I teach that is good to face our fears. What's the worst thing that can happen? The higher side of fear is caution, so how can we exercise caution in our situation?

Psychologist, M.Ed., CAGS, IAAP
Anxiety and fear are fundamental responses to threats or percieved threats, and often associated with a history of trauma. My work with these symptoms is based on this understanding.
