Who's more brave?

[Srijita52]

I was thinking about courage today randomly and it occured to me how its kind of subjective. Just wondering, whom would you consider braver? The person who has no problems with anxiety (not more than usual) and takes part in dangerous activites or does them for a living or the person who's terrified to leave their house but still force themselves to get out even if for a short period.

Courage means facing your fears.

No fears to face? No courage needed.

Pretty much.

Normal people without anxiety will probably see the daredevil as being braver than the agoraphobic person. This shouldn't be some sort of competition to see who's the bravest of all. What's the reward? More broken bones?

Interesting thought.:thinking:
Definitely subjective.
Someone, like the many people who have no understanding of mental illness, would automatically say the person doing the dangerous activities was the bravest.
