Not a breeze today!
I’m just sitting here, thinking..
Exposure therapy works, for most of life, I was afraid of absolutely everything that buzzed & crawled!
I still don’t like it, but I’m ok.
The fear is way less.
You don’t need to pay for a therapist for it either, if you can’t or won’t, just do it your own way & find free stuff on the internet..
I once had a therapist for it cuz I had reached phobic level, he was pretty useless lol
bless his heart.
There’s something buzzing around me right now & instead of fear & running & going nuts, it’s more like.. bro be gone. Chill.
Knowledge is power when it comes to fear though, I’ve found, the more you know, the less fear you can have…
Like, I don’t want to exist with buzzy & crawly things, but I have to, so everywhere I go I read about what to expect & if they can hurt me & how badly…
& then my fear level adjusts..
One might think that’s too much, overthinking etc, but it’s actually quite helpful for fear and anxiety..
I feel like, everything in life I’ve had fear about, once I learn about it, it gets better.
So, I guess this post is about knowledge taking the power out of fear & that can be applied to many things in life ❤️
