Fear Of Happiness

Question

If you're a normal human, you know how important being happy in your life is. If we see it practically, its only happiness that all of us do everything for, be it hectic jobs, risky businesses, or even marry someone.
But have you ever though that there could also be people in our world, who might not wish to be happy at all?
No, they do not want to live this way, ita just, that they can't be happy for long.

Today I'll talk about 'Cherophobia', the fear of happiness.

People who have this phobia, tend to stay reserved, and avoid participating in any activity that could bring joy to them, not because they don't want to, but because of the fear, that something terrible might happen, if they let themselves loose, and have fun.

I wish to learn more about this phobia, so tell me

Lavi · Answer

I used to be like that but I have learn to grow out of that, by embracing life as it is. We are afraid because we want life to go in our ways, we are afraid of disappointment. Living in the moment is better. Fear is only our imagination.
