> So I had this thing, I was journalling. I was talking about fear, and I started to describe various types. Like the fear where you say no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no quietly over and over to yourself to fill your mind so that theres nothing else but that. Do you think I saw that on T.V. or maybe read it somewhere? Was it maybe me? Damn, I just don't know. Maybe I'm just making it all up so I can know SOMEthing. But I don't even know where it came from? Sorry if I'm being selfish and not posting to others, but I don't feel I have anything to offer thats any good to anybody right now.
I don't know if you saw it on TV, but I do it too sometimes and I imagine a lot of people do the same thing. However, I don’t find it works very well, because when I do it I can’t seem to push away the thing I’m saying ‘no’ to. It’s a particularly painful kind of fear for me.
You’re not being selfish and you don’t need to apologise!
Are you OK?
