Description

Fear is an intensely unpleasant primal emotion in response to perceiving or recognizing a danger or threat. Fear causes psychological changes that may produce behavioral reactions such as mounting an aggressive response or fleeing the threat. Fear in human beings may occur in response to a certain stimulus occurring in the present, or in anticipation or expectation of a future threat perceived as a risk to oneself. The fear response arises from the perception of danger leading to confrontation with or escape from/avoiding the threat, which in extreme cases of fear can be a freeze response.

ശരീരത്തിന്റെ നിലനില്പിനു അപകടം നേരിട്ടേക്കാവുന്ന അപകടഭീഷണിയോടോ അപകടത്തോടോ തന്നെ മനസ്സ് വൈകാരികമായി പ്രതികരിക്കുന്നതാണ്‌ ഭയം. അതിജീവിക്കാനുള്ള ശ്രമങ്ങളിൽ ശരീരത്തിന്റെ പ്രതിപ്രവർത്തനങ്ങളിൽ പ്രധാനപ്പെട്ട ഒരു ഘടകമാണ്‌ ഇത്. എല്ലാ മനുഷ്യരും ഒന്നല്ലെങ്കിൽ മറ്റൊരുതരത്തിൽ ഭയമനുഭവിക്കുന്നവരാണ്.
