Hi Readytostop,

What a thoughtful post, I understand what you mean. You sound like you are trying your best at a comfortable pace. Let's hope your T continues to help you through it all.

What I do is bring a stuff animal with soft fur and sympathetic eyes, so I can hug it when I get scared of the topic. Also, I take little actions to propel myself closer to facing the fear: writing a little bit in my journal, or just daring myself to imagine how it's like to be free of the fear, etc.

Also, getting to know others who have the same fears, to feel not alone.

Sending you good wishes!
