Learning to feel, describe, and respond to our emotions isn’t as easy as it sounds. It can be difficult for some people to even be aware of their emotions, much less be willing to face them and get to the bottom of them. This is especially true for negative feelings like insecurity and fear. These two emotions in particular have a curious relationship with each other and with the people feeling them. It’s really no wonder why some people can be plagued with fears—hands begin to shake as the heart starts beating faster. All of this anxiety can cause people to stop living the bucket list lifestyle they dream of. The punishment for getting it wrong is run-away-paranoia. How do they affect the person feeling them? What do we do when the fear tries to paralyze all our being? 'Darkling fears' is a collection of such writings from writers who have dealt with fears and insecurities at some point of their lives and decided to acknowledge them through their work.
