How do I get over my fear?? Please help?

Something probably happened to you when you were too young to remember that scared you so much it just rings up those memories deep in your mind. I have fought anxieties all my life and I know how miserable and embarred they can make you. What I do to try and control my fears is to learn everything I can about what I am fearing. You know, fireworks can be dangerous, so I suggest just watching at a safe distance, and you don't have to handle any. I myself have never been comfortable close to them cause I don't trust them, or most people who are handling them. A professional show is safe and that is what we go and do. Since you are obligated to be home, just say you want to enjoy from a safe distance-which is really smarter anyway. Sparklers and snakes and anything that just stays under control is safe and you will learn this when you research them. The worse that can happen is burning yourself by touching or stepping on an area that is still hot. The ones that shoot up or blow up, well I honestly think its safer to be away from them because they can shoot different that what the person expects. So your fear is justified in that case. The noise scares many people, but again, there is nothing that is going to hurt you from that. So learn about them, get in a position to watch where you feel safe and comfortable, and I think you will end up having fun. Best of luck to you, I know you can conquer this!!!
