You're trying to frame my words to fit into your narrative - which is a bad idea. (it denotes a desire to want to frame me as 'something')
I profess to being an expert in nothing.
I neither instill it, nor live in it.
I've dealt with many- most- of my inner fear demons - it's a journey, not a destination.
You cannot instill fear, fear is a response from the individual to a stimulus of some kind (real or imaginary, internal or expternal).
....For example, my telling the truth about somethings can uncover fears that are already hidden within someone - that is not instilling anything. That is uncovering.
I instill nothing - I may uncover uncomfortable hidden realities through my words, which is then projected as instilling, or causing - so as to avoid confronting the issue.
Avoidance strategies are the 'go to' defense mechanism a lot of the time, when people are confronted with things that they'd prefer not to see about themselves....
