I THOUGHT I WOULD START A DISCUSSION ON FEARS!!! MY BIGGEST FEAR IS (MIGHT SOUND RIDICULIOUS) BUT IT IS A FEAR OF HAVING A ALLERGIC REACTION TO FOOD!!! I DON'T NO WHEN THIS STARTED BUT I USED TO EAT ANYTHING BUT PROBABLY FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS OR SO I HAVE STOPPED EATING FOODS THAT I HAVEN'T HAD FOR AGES. I THINK THAT IF I EAT THESE FOODS THAT MY THROAT WILL SWELL UP & I WILL DIE. I NO IT'S TOTALLY IRRATIONAL WELL SOMETIMES!!! I DON'T EAT AT RESTRAUNTS WHERE I'VE NEVER EATEN BEFORE AT DON'T EAT AT FRIENDS HOUSES EITHER AS I DON'T NO WHAT'S IN THE FOOD!!!! PLEASE VENT YOUR FEARS SO WE CAN SHARE THEM.....THIS IS MY SECRET NOBODY NO'S ABOUT THIS IN MY FAMILY OR FRIENDS...... [img]
I am not a medical doctor.....My opinion is purely that....I try & give the best advice to help others from my own experiences.......

I don’t know what the key to success is, but the key to failure is trying to please everyone.

Sometimes we need to stop analyzing the past,stop planning the future,stop figuring out how we feel,stop deciding what we want,and just see what happens.

Forget the past, it has already happened, worry not about the future, it has yet to come. Concentrate on today, and make every moment count.

i can't pin it to one things

i fear losing our home to foreclosure, fire or something, i fear something happening to my husband or children

i worry some sexual preditor will target my daughter

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
Maybe someday you'll look up,
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
"Isn't something missing?"

You won't cry for my absence, I know -
You forgot me long ago.
Am I that unimportant...?
Am I so insignificant...?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
I know what you do to yourself,
I breathe deep and cry out:
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?

And if I bleed, I'll bleed,
Knowing you don't care.
And if I sleep just to dream of you
And wake without you there,
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something...

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

My therapist just asked me to bring her my top 10 fears next time I come back to her office. We are going to do what is called "flooding." That is when she takes me to the thing that causes me aniety and makes me have an attack so she can show me how to get out of it/prevent it.

Here's my list:

Bridges

Expressway

Wal-Mart

Mall

Driving

Night time

Elevators/ 2 story buildings

Traffic

Crowds of people

Being/Sleeping alone

Biggest fear? So many! Being home alone used to upset me, better these days.

Throwing up scares me because when I was a child I couldn't stop once and my parents took me to the hospital and it was very unpleasant (I was very sick as it was I had been throwing up for days).

I hate being "in the spotlight" and observed. My perception of this is warped I know sometimes going to walmart makes me feel like everyone is staring at me and I have to leave

I am not a medical doctor.....My opinion is purely that....I try & give the best advice to help others from my own experiences.......
