Why Am I Afraid?

Often, When We Feel Fearful It Is Rooted in Childhood Trauma.

As a psychotherapist, I listen to stories of pain and anxiety every day. Often, it is difficult to figure out where t fear or anxiety is coming from. Our childhood stories are usually where our fears are rooted. The earlier fear is experienced the deeper it is stamped in our psychic. Therefore, we may be age 40 experiencing significant anxiety without realizing why we are feeling that anxious. It is likely related to childhood trauma.
