I hear how others talk about their fear of anger in T, but what about fear of fear?
This is a huge trigger for me, where when I feel fear, I want to jump in front of a train. |

Oh, I so understand. Fear is such a trigger for me. I think sometimes that I've always lived in fear of one thing or another and I just want to escape it ASAP.
Thanks for bringing this up. It may be the subject of my counseling session on Wednesday.

Until my meds kicked in, I had accepted fear, anxiety and panic as part of my inherent personality. Now, I am experiencing life for the first time with a level of calm I never knew I could have. I am finally free from constant fear.

Fear of fear, yes , that's a strong one and that alone causes me alot of anxiety. That generalized anxiety disorder where I worry about everything , and trust me I conjure up some **** in my mind, then I plan ways to handle it if it does happen. This is a constant battle with me. I fear that I will be too afraid to handle whatever it is that may happen or NOT ever happen.

Ugh. Tell me about it. I am so tired of the constant fear. I'm afraid to do anything, but if I don't do anything it gets worse.
I've had somewhat of a breakthrough lately, simply by being forced to do things I think... How to deal with fear of fear - know it's a phantom and it loses its power. Easier said than done... I'm still struggling with it...

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
