Why the Unknown Scares Us More Than Bad News

Описание: Why does the unknown feel more frightening than bad news? Humans are wired to fear uncertainty — not because it’s dangerous, but because it removes control.

This video explores the psychology of fear and uncertainty: why the unknown triggers anxiety, how survival instincts shaped our discomfort with not knowing, and why avoiding uncertainty quietly shrinks our lives. We examine how fear of the unknown influences decisions, belief, and identity — often without us noticing.

This isn’t about eliminating fear. It’s about understanding it — and learning why uncertainty isn’t only threat, but possibility.
