counterphobia. i believe this one's rare; it's the fear from thoughts of danger. one is not afraid to face a particular thing, but imagining an unlikely scenario is already a stab in the heart. this one's too complicated to handle.

every fear is in the mind. just believe in yourself and trust the right people and everything would turn out right. no more traumas and excessive sweating to bother with.

it's what i'm dealing with. and not even my nerdiest-mode brain could not bear with it. the instinct of staying safe and alive dominates and the heart ceases. at least, it would be over for some moment and then would return repeatedly.

stay safe, stay alive.

i'm not afraid of being stranded in a foreign place. but the insecurities, thoughts of hold-up, gang attacks, and other social misdeeds. i'm not afraid of being alone. but whenever i imagine the people i know of forgetting about me chokes me.

i'm not afraid of the nature, in fact, i love it. but getting drowned in the water, burned by the fire, or choked by the sand...

someone might push me off the edge... i might cut myself... i could stumble and break my leg... i might slip and be an embarrassment icon... i might get infected with diseases... i might die.

i'm not afraid of fights, but i'm scared of losing friends. i'm even more afraid to wholely trust somebody because i know that person will not always be there for me. and it kills me to hear from another person backstabbing.

counterphobia is not only about the war of the mind. it's about me... and deal with it.

This is not Counterphobia. Here's a simple definition:
Seeking of feared object or situation: a psychological condition in which the affected person intentionally seeks out the object or situation that he or she fears, rather than avoiding it.

Counterphobics face their fears to conquer them.

You've got counterphobia all wrong dude!
It's not about facing your fears.
It's about people who have a compunction TO face their fears, whether healthy or otherwise...
