FABIANO, HANNAH LEI R.
As a student as well as an individual person, I have a lot of fears growing up. My worst fear is
something I think about practically every night. I am terrified of dolls, big crowds, getting stuck
in an elevator, ghosts, oceans, and many much more that I don’t know what those are.
Nonetheless, these anxieties do not have the same impact on me as this one. The one I regard to
be my greatest accurately simulates an illness, which I haven't figured out how to handle. The
scariest aspect is that I don't know how to deal with this fear – and that is the fear of losing
someone I love. Throughout these days, I have a lot of horrors in my head that I want that to stop
because I know that I’ll lost it if not. I tend to overthink a lot of things, such as the losing of
someone I love. I know that we are humans, death is inevitable, and I know that we all have to
go through that kind of phase in our lives. But I just can’t stop thinking that at night, that one day
in our lives, we have to accept that our parents and some relatives will leave us. And that is the
greatest fear that I have within.
As for myself – in terms of ambitions and goals. The fear of failing is what I regard to be one of
my greatest fear in life. All of the goals I've set for myself and want to attain in my life are the
result of this dread. It may be a valid cause, however these anniversaries are accompanied with
an increase in my mental health stress. As the years passed and I began to progress with my
education, beginning with high school, the weight of responsibility grew, as did my anxiety of
failure. The amount of time and work required to finish projects and prepare for examinations
made me wonder if I'd ever amount to anything. I am working hard right now in school because I
want to prove something for myself and for my parents. I just don’t want to waste this
opportunity given to me because I know that not everyone has given the opportunity to go to
college. It is my parent’s choice to continue my studies without any hinders – the part time jobs.
I actually considered having and looking for part time jobs but my parents’ forbidden me to do
so, saying that I should stick to my studies. I obliged because I know that they know how bad am
I when it comes to time management. They’re giving me a lot of advices when it comes to
adulting and I just don’t want to be screwed up. I want to be better and I must say that apart from
losing them, failure is one of the things that I fear the most.
