Personal Narrative: My Fear Of Change

181 Words1 Page

The fears I have had since I was a little girl have disappeared with age, but the one I cannot dispense with is my fear of complete change. I do not mind change but only in moderation. Even though many anticipate the day they have to leave for college, I dread the idea of deserting everything and everyone I know. Even after understanding that change benefits me by obtaining more life experiences and developing into a mature adult, I still am hesitant. Something from within me creates this sense of doubt and I panic. I feel as though I need some kind of special training before being sent off to the “real world,” but I know there is no such class. Daily, I pray to God for guidance in my choices and life. Although, I may not be able to hear or

    This affects me as a person because facing my fear and overcoming it is really hard to me because I usually don’t face my fear in person because I usually face my fear in dreams and I don’t like seeing it. I remember in the past when I got so mad and almost got into a rage mode which made me feel really bad in the inside. My sister got me really mad by doing something I told her not to do, but instead of myself getting really mad, I was able to handle my anger and not get really mad. I got really happy because I was able to overcome my fear of not getting really mad and not feeling really bad in the inside. A future fear is me not doing good in school or other sport activities. To me this is a big fear because when I do bad in swimming and school then I get in trouble by my parents but if I do good in swimming and school then my parents get proud of me. If I do good in swimming and school then it means I am overcoming my fear of my parents getting mad at

    Metathesiophobia fear of change, for me was common. What used to and can still get to me was change happening. This fear would make me frustrated and uncooperative sometimes. The thought of meeting new people and embarrassing myself for some unknown reason or even sitting in a different place for lunch was a little nerve racking. I became a little too careful about what how I should handle certain things. Even though it would frighten me, I would still try to do it. Afterwards, I would feel so much better that it was done and over with, but my nerves would still be on the fringe. With the support of my family and trying new things, my fear won't overcome me.

    By the time I was 13 years old, I thought I had everything planned out already up until college. I had already built up a plethora of excitement for everything I had been anticipating, so when my dad broke the news that my family would be moving, I was devastated. I wasn’t willing to leave behind my friends and everything that had been a part of my childhood. Because I had refused and avoided any possibility of change in my life since I was little, I wasn’t ready for change, nor have I ever experience significant changes in my life up to that point.

    Living a fear controlled life will not give you anything but stress. I’m not saying to throw all caution to the wind, but be mindful of the things you fear, why you fear them.For example, if you fear snakes because you were bitten as a child this is a reasonable thing to be afraid of and you most likely will avoid snakes in the future. On the other hand if you fear leaving the country to travel or going new places because of a bunch of ‘what-if’ situations, you need to face these fears head on. Facing a fear is very similar to cleaning out an attic, it seems quite daunting at first, but once it’s done you feel so much lighter. The world if full of ‘what-ifs’ and you couldn’t possibly have the time to think about all of them. These are the fears that should not control you, by letting them go you will relieve your stress and open up more possibilities for experiences and memories. Trying new things will not only broaden one’s horizons, but it will also open the door for new friendships (Joe

    My fears although real and still there, be it below the surface, are truly leaving. I never thought that I could feel safe and comfortable outside of the nice cushy box that I made for my self in the previous chapter of my life, but I stepped out. I ventured farther than anyone else in my family ever had gone. I have conquered my anxiety, or at least pushed it back for a while. I have faced my challenges of being out on my own, and maybe even created a few more that I cannot see yet on the horizon, but for now I am making it on my own.
