This fear of starting anything new has been going on for months now, and it's gotten worse since I changed meds. I feel weird even writing this post. I have projects I want to do that require me learning something new, but I have this fear of failure that's kicking my *** down to the ground. I probably need to discuss this in therapy, but my therapist would be more into digging into the feelings than helping me figure out what to do with them. I've taken meds to try and calm down but they're not helping much at the moment. I won't se my pdoc until Friday so I'm having to hold out on this until then. I don't expect anything; I just needed to vent. I'm so tired of feeling wound up all the time.

I completely understand. My fear of starting anything new and ultimately of failure are the bane of my existence.
