 The quality of your character is shifted. Your fears are... It's weird that your fears in your own head can become this monstrous boogeyman. But when you actually sit down with a friend or someone who cares, really cares, and you spit them out of your mouth, by the time they come out of your head and land on the table in front of you, they're little tiny little fears. They're kind of cute. But in your head, they were a big freaking deal.
