Hello, folks. How are you all doing?
I'm afraid. I've been this way for as long as I can remember.
I read posts from time to time that mention NOT living in fear...about how people refuse to live in fear.
I don't know how to do that and I have to say that I’m jealous of people who don’t live this way. I cannot control how I feel...I never could. I’ve tried and I’ve failed miserably.
I'm hoping therapy will help me through it. I’ve been living in a shell for a long time and I want out.
I’m interested in hearing from folks who could not control fear and found a way to manage the fear or get it to disappear.
I don’t know where to begin or how.
It’s bad this morning…I don’t want to leave the house, but I will. I have therapy this morning and I’m scared. I know the feeling is ridiculous…my therapist is really easy to talk to, but I worry that one time I’ll go in there and she’ll drop me. I hate feeling vulnerable and asking for help. The simple act of going to therapy is bringing out all kinds of old hurts. This sucks.
