Fear is a learned response that is reinforced by minor related cues and incidents and humans learn to respond in a certain way to a specific situation. Usually, a person has three responses to a fearful situation: fight response, flight response, or freeze response. If a person adopts a flight or freeze response it brings problems in their life. The client must have awareness of fears and responses to make their coping better
