Marlon (Mark Charnock), who hasn’t driven since having a stroke, is given the challenge of operating his new, modified vehicle by Rhona (Zoe Henry) for a special “Face Your Fears Day” episode of Emmerdale that will air soon.
He is optimistic, Mark Charnock said to us. He desires to regain his independence and demonstrate to his pals that he is not entirely dependent upon them. and that they are not need to be present at all times.
So, yeah, he is optimistic. But he lacks that sense of self-assurance and self-aggression about simply doing it. I believe that he would prefer not to face learning once more.
Mark, who understands how challenging it can be to face your anxieties, explained to us that how someone tackles overcoming their fears greatly relies on their personality and the circumstances.
For instance, the thought of riding a roller coaster might make him more anxious about heights, he said. However, in my opinion, seeing a scary movie may help you overcome your phobias. Psychoanalysts can suggest that seeing a horror movie is beneficial in certain ways since it exorcises so many physiological demons. But in the comfort of your living room, you are acting out your worries.
While on a rollercoaster, you are not riding in the safety of your living room, but rather, you are moving around at a very high speed on something extremely high. It won’t, in my opinion, make you feel any less afraid. Therefore, for me, it fully depends on the situation and the nature of your true fear.
He mentioned one instance when, with a little assistance from his Emmerdale cast mates, he did face his own concerns head-on.
We performed as a group on the singing competition Britain Get Singing, which aired on ITV around Christmas.Even though I wasn’t singing alone, I was quite frightened because I’m not a vocalist,’ he admitted.
You know what, though?It was an incredible process to go through. I was working with six other Emmerdale actors who were wonderful and encouraging.I believe it was similar to Marlon’s experience with his driving accident where he found support from others. I received incredible encouragement from my cast members, and at the end I was almost eager to perform. which, thanks entirely to the individuals I did it with, had an astounding transformation over the course of 72 hours.
Mark was singled out by Judge Jason Manford, who noted how anxious he had been earlier.
I got the nicest six parachutes you could ask for, so it was like leaping out of a plane! Mark answered.
When reflecting on the event, Mark told us, “It was a big deal for me.” I’ll never be a singer, but being up there and performing that helped me realize that if I can handle that, I can probably handle other things that make me anxious.
