Fear is often viewed as a negative emotion, but it is fundamental for survival. It helps us recognize and react to an immediate danger, activating two primary mechanisms: flight or fight.

The amygdala activates the sympathetic nervous system to prepare the body for reaction. Unlike fear, which is a response to a real danger, anxiety is a diffuse threat that arises from constantly thinking about an event that generated fear.
