When that fear kicks in do you have flashbacks, is it more of just unknowing reaction? I'm trying to get at is your aversion a bias that is intentional or subconscious?
A bias? I wouldn't call it a bias. I'd call it a reasonable reaction to external circumstances. Reasonable for a person who does not want to die and may not have a whole lot of control over that. 

I have an unknowing reaction. An uncontrollable, visceral fight or flight response.
