am I wrong to be afraid?

I am afraid of life,
afraid of not being able to complete education,
fear of being broke and starving,
afraid of losing the people I love who died first,
afraid that no woman will accept me as I am,
afraid to be a failure,
fear of gaining high trust from others,
afraid to be myself,
afraid to be hated by everyone because we are different,
What's all this fear about? I do not understand too. I get scared all the time. is it wrong to fear our own failures? how can we never stop believing that everything will be beautiful in its time?

Those are the same fears everyone shares throughout their lifetime. You can only change it if you choose to change it.

Breaking the chains of fear takes a lot courage and perseverance. It's also not instant but it's a long process. So many questions have to be answered like for example "what qualities you have that will make a woman not accept you?" etc Fear is a normal feeling but it can also paralyze a person.

@gamayngbaki it seems that one way is to make peace with myself, but it's hard for me to do, I hate myself so much for my shortcomings, and this has become a source of fear for me about everything, it seems this is where all these problems started

@youfiq Try to imagine your hands and feet literally being bound by the word fear and try with all your might in your imagination to break free from it. Take notice of how you feel while struggling to break the chain of fear in your imagination. This process will involve forgiveness of others and most especially of yourself. Try to notice what is it that is holding you back from breaking this very strong chain.

It's natural to have that fear . . . but you can't have these fears overwhelm you to the point that it hinders you from living a life and reaching your goals. Believe in successes by being productive and keep moving forward . . . try your best and always be a good person.

Fear accomplishes nothing, it is a waste of energy. What is the worse that can happen? When the time is right, you will find the right person and have a happy life.

we all face fear at any point on our lives. these are challenges to us. We will not know if we can do it if we will not face it. Do you want to be forever fearing things or move forward and face challenges head on. We might fail in some aspects of our lives but it does not mean we are a failure. Failure is when you do not do anything for yourself.
