Understanding pain is towards that of the individual's threshold. One is painful to one, may not have the same degree of pain on another.

Fear is evident when any animal or human ability to expereince fear for survival. Fear triggers the familiar "fight or flight" response, characterized by increased heart rate, breathing, and muscle tension, which allows the individual to escape from danger or defend itself against a predator/opposition. Based on the presence or absence of a stimulus, the brain appropriately regulates the strength and duration of this coping mechanism. When this regulatory system malfunctions, however, it can lead to excessive fearfulness in certain individuals. For some reason, these people have trouble suppressing the body's response to stress. While a lot of progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms that initially trigger fear responses, the precise method of turning them off remains elusive.
