What is an intense fear of travel known as?

DIRECTION: Read the passage and answer the question based on it. If a person suddenly encounters any terrible danger, the change of nature one undergoes is equally great. Sometimes fear numbs our senses. Like animals, one stands still, powerless to move a step in fright or to lift a hand in defense of our lives, and sometimes one is seized with panic, and again, act more like the inferior animals than rational beings. On the other hand, frequently in cases of sudden extreme peril, which cannot be escaped by flight, and must be instantly faced, even the most timid men at once as if by miracle, become possessed of the necessary courage, sharp quick apprehension and swift decision. This is a miracle very common in nature. Man and the inferior animals alike, when confronted with almost certain death ‘ gather resolution from despair’ but there can really be no trace of so debilitating a feeling in the person fighting, or prepared to fight for dear life. At such times the mind is clearer than it has ever been; the nerves are steel, there is nothing felt but a wonderful strength and daring. Looking back at certain perilous moments in my own life, I remember them with a kind of joy, not that there was any joyful excitement then, but because they broadened my horizon, lifted me for a time above myself. What is the meaning of the word debilitating?Choices:- Enfeeble Strengthen Debase thriving

Can you give me a postive response to this text?One of my biggest fears are heights. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll get on a plane and a roller coaster ride but I’ll always be hesitant and anxious. You won’t see me climbing no mountain or climbing up no tree, not at this age. The movie Final Destination and the attack on 9/11 have conditioned me to be less willing to go to amusement parks and less likely to book the room on the top floor. Knowing that technical malfunctions happen frequently at amusement parks as a kid, the movie final destination showed me these scenarios can pan out much differently. I didn’t realize this was a fear of mine until I found myself sitting out on the drop tower in Kings Dominion. I said to myself “nah that’s too high.” Whenever I book a hotel it’s the bottom floor. When I go to sign my lease I need a bottom floor. I’m not afraid I’m just not having it. Better safe than sorry.
