It is highly possible that people fear you based on the aura you give. It could be your defense mechanisms that manifest itself in you physically, meaning your facial expressions, body postures, your one word answers that make it seem as though people fear you. But the thing is, people fear what they don’t know so it’s not so abnormal to be feared by people.
Fear can be fun and exciting some times. The excitement generated can also help alleviate depression by increasing adrenaline, which in turn increases arousal, excitement and glucose. Just as caffeine can put you in an optimal state of performance but too much can be detrimental and make you crash, a little bit of fear is a boost of adrenaline. It’s nearly impossible to be thinking of your everyday pressures and worries when you’re experiencing fear or feeling scared.
When people fear you, it gives you a natural high and a sense of empowerment. Not only is adrenaline released but other chemicals as well, such as dopamine, endorphins, oxytocin and serotonin. There’s a good reason for that: serotonin, in particular, helps your brain to work more efficiently. Fear is energy.
