There is a big difference between fear and a phobia. Fear is natural response we have to something so that we can stay away from harmful situations, but a phobia is an irrational fear of something that has been developed for various reasons. There are many different techniques to getting over something like this, you can classically condition yourself to relate a good feeling or experience to whatever is frightening you, or in some situations an exposure therapy can be helpful; but you have to make sure that you are experiencing the fear in a safe environment where the only variable is being exposed to what is frightening you. (This is not always the best way to get over a fear, sometimes it can actually worsen the problem). Talk to a professional though if you need to get over a serious phobia.

When they realize that everyone is afraid of something and it’s normal to be scared. You can either face your fears or run away from them, but if you run away, you’ll never conquer your fear and it will control you and how you live your life.

When you decide that something is more important than fear.
