Since humans are so complicated psychologically (we are all different) this is a tough question to answer. What can make one person fearful may not make another fearful. The obvious fear factors would be someone chasing, stalking or trying to harm you. Threats of murder, rape, abuse. Some people are afraid of heights, elevators, the dark and yes, even loneliness. Some people can be fearful dealing with a lengthy illness and most of us have some fear of dying by an illness. The long and short of it is, we all want to survive no matter what we may feel at this moment, so, if for any reason (even a gut feeling) we feel fearful then our survival instincts kick in. It has been said that there are no heroes (some heroes will even admit this) but survival instincts that kick in and also survival for your fellow man (saving someone's life.) These are called "adrenaline rushes." There are a low percentage of people that are "adrenaline junkies" and will risk life and limb to "get the rush." They consider it a rush to escape death over and over. Most of us try to play it safe and just want to get on with life and don't need these adrenaline rushes in our daily lives. Marcy
