To get rid of your fears, learn to live with them. Use your imagination and try to figure out what happens if you decide to take action. You can also train your courage by overcoming small fears first and then moving on to more significant ones.
Instructions
Step 1
To get rid of your fears, find out exactly what you are afraid of and why. It would seem that everything is clear, but in reality it is not. For example, someone who is afraid of heights may actually be afraid not of heights, but of falling. Remember after what events the fear arose. Travel back in time and analyze your emotions, if possible.
Step 2
Releasing fear is accepting it. You can not try to get rid of the feelings that accompany the fear, but learn to live with them. In a stressful situation, listen to your feelings and emotions, analyze and evaluate them. You can write everything down on a sheet, periodically re-read it in order to quickly get used to the sensations. This will allow you to get more and more accustomed to the state in which you are in when you are afraid each time. And after a while you will notice that your feelings have ceased to bother you. The fear is no longer as obvious as it used to be.
Step 3
Try to think logically and understand what the worst case scenario might be. Imagine deciding to act in spite of your fears. Think about what might happen in this case. Probably, nothing critical and supernatural will happen. But even if you are in a specific danger, you will know what exactly scares you. And if you know your fear in person, it can stop being so frightening, because often it is the unknown that confuses and makes you afraid the most.
Step 4
To get rid of fear, learn to face it and act by casting aside all doubts. For example, if you are afraid to drive, just get behind the wheel, start the car, and hit the road. If you do this every time, you will soon find that the fear gradually becomes less and less noticeable. As a result, you will overcome your fear.
Step 5
Train your courage. Such training will allow you to develop resistance to fears or learn to live with them without discomfort. Start by overcoming minor fears. For example, if you are afraid of mice, go to the pet store and walk up to the cages with these animals. Then ask the seller to show you the mouse, try holding it in your hands. When you stop being afraid of these rodents, start fighting another fear. As a result, you will be able to overcome more and more fears, tempering and training your fearlessness.
