Fear is a normal signal that we are hard-wired to receive when we are in danger. This "fight or flight" response is meant to keep us alive - we are not meant to live there all the time. When your cup is always full, any amount of stress makes it spill over, resulting in more fear and discomfort. You may lash out or retreat because you just cannot handle one. more. thing. You may even have medication so you can just make it stop.
