Adrenaline: your body rewarding you for facing your fears.
You know there is really nothing to fear in the known. 's why horror movies that show you everything, including what you're supposed to be afraid of, fail. The good ones are those that never reveal the object of your fear. (I guess then maybe they would be suspense? Well whatever.)
But it's funny how sitting down rationally and naming your fear will make it just go away. Kind of like what Rand's getting at in "Atlas" when she talks about the people whose thoughts are formless, who leave their thoughts and fears and desires unnamed.
