Sure, you have a good point. Fear isn’t silly, but there’s a balance to strike. If after three vaccinations you’re still so scared of the possibility of getting COVID (as long as you’re not extremely frail or elderly) that it’s causing you to not enjoy yourself or do healthy activities like go to the gym, you might be overly cautious.
Fear is a good indicator to think rationally as bout things. But if fear becomes irrational and compromises your everyday life, that’s when you should ignore it. Everything you feel can be in a healthy or an unhealthy way you gotta draw the line somewhere. And for extreme cases, we have therapists.
Isn’t fear a big part of human survivor instincts?
Fear is literally the thing that keeps me away from trying drugs, stopped smoking, and stopped drinking in my early 20s LOL.
I love my fears. I’m a cowardly bastard who can never be peer pressured into doing any dangerous or stupid shits.
But I’ll still go to the gym. However, I’m gonna be that weirdo who wears a mask with a bottle of Purell in the corner. :)
