Is it normal to be scared of new things?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, it’s normal to feel nervous or scared about new things. The unfamiliar can feel risky even when you’re curious about it, too.
New things come with uncertainty, and your brain may treat that as a reason to be cautious. Lots of people feel anxious before trying a new activity, meeting someone, starting a job, or changing their routine—even when they also want to do it.
