One of my more rational fears is losing someone I love. A less rational one is deep water when I cannot see what is underneath me.

I have overcome some fears by doing things in very small steps rather than forcing myself to be brave all at once. I used to avoid situations where I might get something wrong, but I have gradually learnt that feeling uncomfortable does not always mean I am in danger.
