overcome a fear

As a kid I slept with the light on, I guess ‘cause I was afraid of the dark, but then as I got older I didn’t, I sleep in the dark now. I don’t like it to be pitch black though. I guess also I got a bit more comfortable in social situations, at least a bit, as I got older. I guess when I get more comfortable with someone I’m OK, usually and I can order takeaways or whatever, when I was younger I was nervous to do that, but I’ve done it a lot of times now.

I’ve always had a fear of these! I have been slowly getting on the down escalator at work. I can’t get on the left side. I can’t be surrounded by people. I can’t have people too close. I’m working on it.

My fear of being left by my partner. The fear of someone who I love, wanting to be with someone else rather, the fear of being bymyself. I feared these for many years, and a month ago in the space of a day, i faced all 3. not by choice, but by my partners. I thank him now, because now I cant fear them anymore. Its taken a big heavy cloud off my mind. Now my next goal…is to you stop making fears so that then atleast they cant come a reality! :)

I have an intense of elevators. Whenever I get the chance next I will promise myself I will ride in one.

I had this fear of heights. I tapped (EFT) and went rock climbing and down a zip line. It was exhilerating.

Phallophobia: fear of the erect penis. It sounds silly, but it was actually a huge issue for me until about two and a half years ago (it still is, but hardly compared to what it used to be). But yes, now I would like to overcome my other irrational fears: heights and waves (big waves, that is, like the ones in the Ocean and the Great Lakes, not little baby waves). I am also extremely claustrophobic.

2 things

first one: i’m learning how to drive after fracturing some vertebrae right before i turned 16 in a nasty car accident

second one: i finally confronted my boyfriend about some hurtful things he did to me in previous less mature years. he was very helpful and encouraging me to get it out, and it felt wonderful and feels wonderful even now.

Getting corrective eye surgery, it’s just freaky and I’m scared about the concept of someone tinkering with my eyes.

Flying to me, really, really sucks. Period. While I have been on a plane in the last year, I’m still afraid of air travel. No idea why though.

I hope to one day get over it.

I have:
touch a snake
bungee jump
swim in ice cold water
