The healthy approach consists on feeling the fear without judgements, without thinking beyond the present moment and this fear and getting used to it as a natural feeling and let orher feelings arise that can help us to face a situation from a wiser perspective.

Oh, I'm so glad you're using the website/guided meditations. the way you describe it - that's meditation right there. It might take some time to be able to let those thoughts come and not respond with judgments, but it gets better/easier with time. My meditation teacher uses a word I like a lot and helped me with this: "gentilmente" dejamos ir ese pensamiento....
A thought goes in your mind, you acknowledge, and you let it go.

Now, I'm in the moment you describe about only wanted to be in a safe place and hide. I have a terrible guilty feeling for different circumstances and I can't move on. I haven't got the strenght now.

And you know what, it's okay to not have the strength right now - it's important to recognize that in the moment - what you feel is valid right now - don't judge it and don't judge yourself either -- what you're feeling is not wrong - you will analyze what is it that you want to do and the moment will come. Do you stay hidden? Do you move? Do you do nothing? The answers will come.
"gentilmente" let go of that guilt when you're ready.
You will find your strength - don't judge yourself or your thoughts.

I hope you find meditation useful because it really helped me - if you need anything - even a little encouragement let me know.
