Do you feel like you are scared of everything, even things that shouldn’t be scary? You’re not alone. Constant fear and anxiety can make even normal situations feel overwhelming. But this fear isn’t just about being nervous—it often comes from how the brain is organized. When the brain struggles to manage emotions, it can feel like everything is a threat.
In this post, we’ll explain how being scared of everything can happen because of retained primitive reflexes and a disorganized brain. You’ll also learn how In the Cortex can help through brain reorganization.
Why Do You Feel Scared of Everything?
If you feel scared all the time, your brain might be stuck in fight-or-flight mode. This part of the brain—called the primitive brain—is responsible for reacting to danger. Normally, it keeps you safe by responding quickly to real threats, like moving out of the way of a speeding car.

However, when the brain is disorganized, it can react to everyday situations as if they are dangerous. This can cause constant anxiety and fear, even when there is no real reason to be scared.
How Primitive Reflexes Cause Constant Fear
We are all born with primitive reflexes—automatic responses that help newborns survive. For example, a baby flings its arms out when it feels like it’s falling (Moro reflex). As we grow, these reflexes should fade away. But when they don’t, they interfere with how the brain processes emotions.
If primitive reflexes stay active, they can cause the brain to overreact to normal events, like:
– Feeling nervous about meeting new people
– Overreacting to loud noises or sudden movements
– Avoiding challenges because they feel too overwhelming
This makes it hard to feel calm or safe, which can lead to feeling scared of everything.
How a Disorganized Brain Triggers Anxiety
A disorganized brain means that the parts responsible for managing fear and emotions are not working together as they should. When this happens:
– The amygdala (the fear center) becomes overactive, triggering constant fear and worry.
– The prefrontal cortex, which helps with decision-making and emotional control, can’t keep fear in check.
This imbalance causes anxiety to spiral out of control, making it feel like everything is a threat.
How Brain Reorganization Can Help
At In the Cortex, we offer brain reorganization programs to help people calm their overactive brains and feel more in control. Our approach focuses on integrating primitive reflexes so the brain can process emotions in a healthy way.
With brain reorganization, you can:
– Calm the fight-or-flight response so the brain doesn’t overreact to small things
– Strengthen the prefrontal cortex to manage fear and anxiety better
– Integrate primitive reflexes so they no longer interfere with emotional control
This method offers a lasting solution by fixing the root cause of anxiety, not just treating the symptoms.

Why Choose Brain Reorganization Over Other Treatments?
Traditional treatments like medication and therapy often focus on managing anxiety symptoms. But they don’t address the underlying brain disorganization that causes constant fear.
In the Cortex’s programs are different. They help reorganize the brain so you can experience lasting relief from anxiety and fear. With a well-organized brain, you’ll respond calmly to life’s challenges instead of feeling scared of everything.
Feeling scared of everything isn’t just about being anxious—it can be a sign of a disorganized brain and unintegrated primitive reflexes. When these reflexes stay active, they keep the brain in fight-or-flight mode, leading to constant fear and anxiety.
In the Cortex offers online brain reorganization programs designed to help calm the primitive brain and improve emotional control. With these programs, you can feel safer, calmer, and more in control of your life.
If you or someone you love struggles with anxiety and fear, consider trying In the Cortex’s brain reorganization programs for a long-term solution.
