The Fear of Thoughts

The fear is that we're going to lose our life. And of course it extends into fears about sickness, things go wrong and we immediately perseverate. So anything to do with security and safety can go right down to that deep survival fear. Then when it's not a life or death issue, this is very interesting: what primates do are default when it’s not life or death is that we start comparing to others. It really is to not belong to feel rejected.
