Fearmongering is a syndrome in which people perceive the world as more dangerous than it really is.
When I started paying attention to the thoughts in my head, I realized that oftentimes, my initial response is to consider negative consequences. This could be related to the parents, when they think of their child future, or about something that their child is intending to do, bad scenarios and outcomes are considered first. I never heard that it is not normal - the parents are always protective of their children and such concerns are natural.
Whether it is an unconscious thing or external influence - I don't know. But, as soon as such thoughts are appearing now, I just drop them off immediately and do not let them mentate any further. That, in turn, is helping me to change the outlook for the future. It is hard to resist thinking that the life is going to be harder, as I age, as the economies, countries, etc are predicted to experience hard times, as natural events are getting more destructive. Naturally, I have been preparing for the worst and hoping for the best, but that change of thinking patterns is giving me hopes that my future may not be worse off, then my past.
I suspect that self feamongering is the thing that many people are experiencing. Are you fighting it or accepting and go along? Could it be influenced by "attached spirits"? I am not going into the extreme cases, which may be caused by biochemical brain disorders like paranoia or mental disorders like schizophrenia. I am talking about the thoughts, that could be considered normal concerns or cautions, that arise as a first reaction, naturally.
