Real fear is under the control of the limbic system (or reptilian brain) and more precisely, the amygdal.Its development is controled by our DNA.Their is only 2 answers to fear: Fight or Flight.Then there are emotive fears called phobias controled by the hypothalamus with more complexe neural and endocrinal reactions.Fear is a tool for the survival of the specie ,just like thirst,hunger, reproduction,maternal love, etc.
