Its hard to put my finger on this: I know phobias can be a HUGE problem in many peoples lives and rather controlling. How do you know when a phobia has become to controlling of your life, where you feel overwhelmed by fear. What is the fear of your loved ones getting killed while not really caring if something bad were to happen to you. What can you do about it? What should you do?.

If the overwhelmed feeling does not go away, then there is a problem. Anxiety and fear are a part of life. It can be a very troubling world. Easy answer is to look at the fear rationally, what am I afraid of, why, what can I control, change, what are the odds of this happening, etc.. Sometimes talking to someone you trust can help. Take care.
