First-hand experience
A past traumatic event, like a near-drowning or panic episode in water.
Second-hand experience
Witnessing someone else struggle or hearing fearful stories about water.
Social pre-conditioning
Growing up around family members who feared water, unknowingly passing that fear down.
Can swim, but still fearful
That’s right! Many adults can physically swim but still feel anxious, tense, or unsafe in deeper water.
Undeveloped water skills
A lack of proper training or gaps in technique, leading to discomfort and uncertainty.
