Acronyms



In the twelve step programs Fear (a massive motivator) is the acronym for "False Evidence Appearing Real."

As far as I'm concerned, I much prefer Asap "Abandon Ship All Post-haste."
Or Caution "Catastrophic Alliance U're Tempting Obsolescence. Now."
Phobia "Please Help Over Board In Alley"
Paranoia "Problem Ahead Run Away Now Or Incur Annihilation"
Worry "Weltschmerz. Orphaned. Ruin. Resentment.Yell"
Anxiety "Anything. No-way. Xtreme. Indecision. Escape. Trouble. Yell (even louder)."
Terror "Traumatic. Extinction. Rejection. Rage. Oh-oh.
Run(-for-your-life)"
Horror "Help. Outrageous. Roller coaster. Regret. OH-NO.
Resistance (is futile)."
Panic "Pain. Angst. Nasty. Insolvable. Crisis."
and last but not least...
Dread "Disambiguation. Retreat. All-Stop. Drop-dead."
