It is natural to have emotions. If you are feeling scared, then you are feeling scared. Are there actions you can take to help you feel less scared?
Thanks AuntieSoSo. Your post put a smile on my face anyway. I liked the gulp and blink because I just got off the bed doing that. Not that that is hysterical, but I can only picture myself. I am getting ready to go to the gym. I'm just putting one step in front of the other.
