I wanted to ask this question about what people would be doing w/out the SP especially because of people I have talked to like gg and myself included, who let it stop us fr.doing so much.
To gg and everyone who wants to go to college or university, have you looked into the possibility of taking classes from home from the computer?
A friend of mine does that but I don't know all the details of how it works.
It bothers me how the SP is taking away or has taken away so much of our lives, of our hopes and dreams.
To me, the SP is "fear of fear" like the expression, theres nothing to fear but fear itself. I fear going into situations that might cause me to have a panick attack because I have had some a few times. So I don't even try anymore, but what if it wouldn't have been as bad as I had thought? And then this is how I live my life, avoiding things and dreading doing the things I know are unavoidable. But it seems like even when you avoid things, you are still afraid and in the back of your mind you think, one day I'm going to die and what will my life have been?
The Sp doesn't seem as important sometimes but rather making every moment here count because you don't know when it is going to be your last. What I'm trying to say is, maybe doing things even though we are afraid might be better than not doing them at all? I know it is hard, beleive me, I know, but sometimes I feel like life is passing me by.
This SP has taken years away fr. me and I don't want it to take anymore, life is too short. If the Sp is stopping us fr. fullfilling our dreams we really need to just pursue them even if we are afraid, if there is no other way.
Like the expression goes, "Being brave is not doing things w/out fear, it is doing things in spite of your fear."
For me, I am going to try taking baby steps in the right direction and try to walk through the fear until it is gone. But I can't just sit back and do nothing, I have to fight it even if it is by doing just one small thing every day.
