This latest Abundance.Tribe BiWeekly Question, was put forward by @riverflows,
"What Is The Effect Of Fear On Our Individual And Collective Psyche?"
late ,with so many reacting out of fear to what is happening around them. The many restrictions and the constant bombardment of information, just adds to it all. So much that we took for granted, is now being taken away from us.
With so many afraid to visit their loved ones and many more no longer allowed too. As it stands we are unsure of what our future holds, especially if we allow it to be written for us.
In these moments it is important that we stand in out power, that we connect with others and that we focus on creating positive change in the world. No matter what the current narrative is, we still have a choice and those choices are what influences the energy that we are creating and that we are projecting out into the world.
We have so much to learn from one another. So it is important to provide opportunities, in which we can share our experiences and create better understanding as we move forward. This question provided just that.
We had 7 answers in total and in the spirit of Abundance one of those writers will receive 20% of the payout of this post . I assigned a number to each response and asked one of my daughters to pick a number. She choose number 5, which was for @rypo01's response.
What Is The Effect Of Fear On Our Individual And Collective Psyche? (AbundanceTribe's BiWeekly Question)

@josediccus
It's evident the world is going through rocky times and these somehow creates agitative emotions and this is natural because we humans senses this situations, we analyse the effect it might have on us and this definitely makes us feel threatened and in turn it causes us to cower, panic and of course; Fear. Generally fear limits the things we can achieve and even without looking at the dark times in the world, one of the biggest fear of man is the fear of dying.
Effect Of Fear On Our Psyche

@chireerocks
Fear is still unknown subject, still it's known subject
We all feel it, the fear, we named it
In some cases fear helps us, it alert us
But there is a dark side too, gives hard time too.
Too much fear makes us powerless, we feel less
At the same time it makes us egoistic, too egoistic
We fail to feel anything properly, when fear dominates us we fail to understand anything properly
It affects our choices, it paralyses our choices.
AbundanceTribe's BiWeekly Question - What Is The Effect Of Fear On Our Individual And Collective Psyche?

@rypo01
Based on the fact that our psyche is where emotions rest both consciously and unconsciously and therefore allows us to give those responses or impulses that are commanded from our brains. So I could say that fear has a fundamental role, many see it in a negative way and are respected, from my perception I think it is very important since it is like a safety device that we naturally have in our bodies that when we perceive something that can cause us harm is activated in the form of an alert sending signals of fright, startle, fear and in an extreme case terror.
Of Fear - A Response to Abundance Tribe Bi-Weekly Question...

@porters
This seems very pertinent to these times where it seems society is operating on a program of fear with something on the agenda like - keep the people in fear - keep them in control.
I see it when I go to town or on the news but I feel somewhat removed having earlier on decided that I'd not let someone or something determine how I was to run my life. I didn't buy into the whole fearful aspect of the pandemic. I will respect the virus but I will not fear it!
It is sad to see fear taking over even to the point of people losing there sense of humanity. That causes me to look long and hard at what I value and for sure when I can not change things to come up with creative ways to keep living in a way that is meaningful to me. Keeping true to myself!
Abundance Tribe Bi-Weekly Question : What is the effect of fear on our individual and collective psyche?

@revisesociology
Fear of getting covid-19 oneself is essentially a fear of suffering through illness and a fear of one's possible untimely, uncomfortable death, and also the fear of passing it onto others, and thus being implicated in someone else’s own suffering through illness or death.
Despite the irrationality of emotion in general, I don't think there’s anything especially irrational about fearing illness or death – the former is not only potentially unpleasant (by many accounts), it also temporarily cripple’s one’s capacity to take care of oneself and others, while death is just a great big pain in the ass for those we leave behind.
AbundanceTribe QOTW - What is the effect of Fear on our Individual and Collective Psyche

@nainaztengra
If we come out of that frequency and raise our energy into higher dimensions, no matter what, we will always be above these energies and we will have our power in our own control.
Fears are the blocks that we create in our Etheric field that works with our energy and attracting the same what we keep feeling and thinking. There are many hidden fears also which we need to confront and overcome. How would you realize that there are hidden fears? Look at your life patterns, what are you attracting all the time, how is your behavior towards self and others, are you progressing in life? These are the questions one need to ask.How the hell can one progress if clouded and fearful.

I have tried so hard to remain positive and not give into the fear, whilst the human world as we once knew slips away from is. Don't get me wrong, I am happy to see the back of that era, one that was build upon greed and manipulation, that saw the earth’s resources used and abused. That era needed to come to an end, things really needed to change and I am ready for that change.
But watching it play out, seeing how easily people play along with the chosen narrative, well it scares me. Mostly because so many folk who I thought were aware, are just following what they are being told. Even when you show them evidence of how this plandemic is not actually a dangerous threat to humankind, they cannot see past what they have been told!

Abundance Tribe Evergreen Collection #13: Breathing Life Into Paid Out Posts
Focalized by @artemislives
There are so many good posts which are enjoyed so fleetingly, or perhaps not at all. Maybe it was published before you joined Hive or not yet following that author? Or that was the week you were fasting in a yurt in Mongolia without wifi? Life happens and the 7 day post rewards window is short. Many would say too short. There are also just so many reasons why a post is overlooked, forgotten or received less reward than it should have: autovoters were down, token price crashed, or it was another Hard Fork within moments of you pressing 'publish".
