Im an anxious person as it is, add to that an intimidating thug, and all the shouting and intimidating mannerisms they do, and a no rules street situation, and im so scared I go into wussy mode, where I dont even dare defend myself incase it makes him angrier and if I do something its half effort due to fear of the consequences, and I also get too scared to do anything at all, also my voice gets all jumpy and weird and makes me sound like a complete wimpy coward.
The fear just build and builds and it gets so intense.
Sparring, a sport fight not such a problem I know I can quit anytime and a ref will dive in to save my *** if I go unconscious and I know I wont die when my head hits the canvis.
On the street though, I dont know the guy, I dont know if he has a weapon, he does all the intimidation routine, if I fall/get KOed and smack my head on the concrete theres a good chance I will die, add to that my anxiety issues and overly negative imagination coupled with my pride of being a man and never backing down out of shame, and being hard on myself in my self talk, and I have a fear cocktail like no other.
Any tips to get rid of fear?
