BOO! *jumps out from a corner and tries to scare you*
Maybe I'm a weirdo, but the OP made a lot of sense for me. I have a bit of a checkered past and the fear of going back there - of treating people the way I did, ending up in the places I did, and the things I thought about myself that I did.....scares the ever-loving *kitten* out of me.
And that fear definitely keeps me working to do better. To say better. To act better. To go therapy, to take my meds, to listen to my doctors, to recover and STAY recovered.
It's not that you SHOULDN'T have fear. It's just that you should learn how to channel it into making you healthier instead of it scaring you away.1 -

I completely agree with those last two lines. I've never heard fears referred to as ghosts before, but it actually makes great sense, as does your approach.
On your bit beginning with "Maybe I'm a weirdo"...all I will say is "Cheers" while toasting you with my mug of coffee...I get it, down deep. Keep on movin on
