Question by Ben’s Mango ^.^: We’re reading about archaeology in social studies and it’s scaring me, how do I deal with it?
Like, they have pictures of skeletons and skulls in the textbook and they talk about them….

That’s exactly what my worst fear has been ever since I can remember. How do I overcome my fear so I can do well in that class?

I’d suggest looking up Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Psychologists use it for people who have all sorts of fears, but you can also do some similar exercises on your own with workbooks and things. Basically, it works by building a hierarchy, where you start off by exposing yourself to something that doesn’t scare you as much and working your way up to the things that are hardest for you. Apparently it can be pretty effective.
