I am fearless. is it normal?

15 Comments

I will explain: I literally have no natural phobias of any kind, that I know of. I don't say this to brag or be "macho." It's not that I don't care; I have a healthy respect for things and activities that could harm me, but I am not afraid in the least of any of them.
Most everyone I know is afraid of something(heights, water, spiders, snakes, etc.), and it seems to be popular to admit it these days. I don't feel anything in common with them when the conversation centers around discussing our fears, so I feel left out and like there is something wrong with me.

    I'd say you're normal, at the least not neurotic. You say you have a healthy respect for things and activities that could harm you, so you aren't reckless. That's good; usually people who disregard potential harm are dangerous to themselves and others.

    You must fear something. Dying alone? No love? Every human wants love.

    Well I should hope you are afraid of things that you should be afraid of. For example you should be afraid of things that could endanger you.
    If you are just talking about irrational fears though then yea that's normal.

    Normal. I have no fears that I know of either.

    You sure that you're entirely fearless and have never experienced the emotion before or are you just saying that you lack any of the traditional phobias?

    I'm thinking it's the latter. Phobias don't do you any good - some people spend lots of money in an attempt to be rid of their pesky irrational fears. Phobias do seem very common, especially the ones that you've mentioned, but that doesn't mean that everyone has them.

    There's nothing wrong with you! Just ask the dude who's terrified of bananas.

    I think its normal. But you won't really know if your afraid of death unless you get close to it.

      What is it about them that scare you? I find them (in a way) cute.

    as long as your not doing dangerous things to prove that nothing can harm you (which could be a sign of a repressed wish to die), you're ok.

    either you just haven't found anything you fear yet and when you do find something that you fear the shock of being scared will completely alter you thinking and life style or...
    your natural survival genes are gone (fears).
    this is bad because the only way that our ancestors survived was being scared of things that could kill you...
    heights, not good for your health, people whom walked of a cliff died
    snakes, often poisonous, ones whom did not fear them died
    water.... okay, not a rational fear, if you know someone with a fear of water they probably descend from africa, (they're black) or they were traumatized early on
