I feel like fear for losing your emotional investment is the same as fearing a threat (because it is a threat to your emotional investment). I'd still rather say threat because it is more universal, for example the fear of being physically hurt is also caused by fear of pain and not just emotional investment.

The source of anxiety is the source of fear as well, so we both are saying same thing but in different manner.
