Yes, we need to pay attention to our fears. Examine them and see if there is any basis for them. Fears that are rational are useful tools for keeping us from danger. We should try to over come our irrational fears so they don't keep us from enjoying our lives to the fullest. A snarling dog would be a healthy, rational fear. Being afraid to leave my house would be an irrational unhealthy and limiting fear.
