Fear as a whole is a good thing. An emotional response, it has served man well since the dawn of time. Fear is a fine-tuned internal warning system which, when working properly, helps keep us safe.

Fear can stop us in our tracks—and it should. It warns us not to step out onto a busy street, not to come too close to a snarling dog, or not to venture onto the ledge of a sixty-story building. These are all common sense fears that most of us have experienced at one time or another.

Some of us, however, have fears that go beyond the norm. Some suffer fears which are not at all practical or useful in daily life.

That’s where FearAZ.com enters the picture.
