I believe that the source of initial fear is not biological. I believe that experiencing your fears and focusing on them again and again trains the brain to make fear a habit, which can be un-learned.
I'm not currently thinking that genetic adjustment will be helpful for dealing with fear, although who knows. Maybe it will be. Right now, I'm working on making the MHS program heal you down to the smallest parts, and the models indicate that having a statement included that points that healing at your genetic material is beneficial. That is what the first use of this technology would be.
If a certain fearful response was created by a stimulus then it was most likely also manifested on epigenetic level through methylation and acetylation. In this case affecting these areals could not even help, but it may be one of the key elements to regulate the fear to normal levels.
We have been always thinking about fear as root of everything, but there is also the other way around. For example certain imbalances, infections or other elements on body level can cause fear as symptom. Think for example on someone with diabetes and low blood sugar. He might develop fear, but in this case it would be only a symptom and removing the fear wouldn’t change anything about the blood sugar level.
It's all a fear of death in one way or another. The fear from diabetes would likely be fear of the consequences of that disease, pain, disability, cost - and death. Fear would not be a symptom of anything, it would be a response.
Removing fear would allow that person to live with a higher quality of life if they would otherwise have been afraid, and some say that a lot of diseases have their roots in fear; so perhaps diabetes is a symptom of fear instead? In that case, removing the right fear would likely remove the disease.
I have seen a lot of different "disorders" you would never think to attribute to fear, but they turn out to be responses to... fear.
I did forget about it in the meantime, so I try again. I just saw too many things that indicate that biochemical changes can as well affect the psyche as the other way around. When I did put the example of diabetes I didn't have the root of diabetes in mind (which could have different causes), I had just the symptom of low blood sugar in mind. Low blood sugar can cause phychological symptoms like fear because there is simply not enough energy for the brain to function. The fear would be clearly a result of lack of glucosis, not the other way around.
Another example would be people who got intoxificated with heavy metals or chemical. Especially these with certain heavy metal toxicity were more likeley to be more fearful, less social active and more likely depressed. That's also because heavy metals can block enzymes which affect the biochemical balance and cause mental symptoms, especially if they become accumulated in the brain. Again it is not fear which caused the intoxification but the intoxification caused symptoms through biochemical imbalance and/or neurodegeneration.
Last but not least there was an experiment with rats. Some were exposed to some kind of stimuli which created a fear response after some time. Later the rats prevented being in that area which could cause pain even if it wasn't active anymore, but it was not surprising at all. The surprising thing was that even two generations later the rats had a similar response like the grandfather generation. The scientists concluded that this response has become hardcoded in through epigenetic changes. The control group didn't have the response at all.
So if fear or the trigger can also become hardcoded in people then it might not be surprising that there is so much fear around. I think especially about European countries now, where the grandparents were involved at the WWII. I guess they had a lot of fear.
So I know, you have a lot of knowledge I don't have the slightly idea of but I think you are wrong with seeing fear as a one way way response only.
Very well exposed, interesting and you're right. But as for the above, eliminating fear may not cure diabetes if it has not been the reason for it, but it could help the healing process, because the fear generated by diabetes can make it difficult to cure it.
