[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 662670, member: 18958"] Nomad, you are a real trooper. I have an occasional symptom that comes on me, where I became afraid at even the thought of going even an hour away because I felt so potentially exposed. I feared it would happen and that I would have nowhere to hide. As a consequence of this conversation I realize the fear has much receded. I have been buying clothes in order to travel. And as I type this I realize that I have not worried about this problem or the fear of it in a while. As I write this I feel it has lost its power. In my case this thing that scared me was probably not related to a serious health problem. I think it came from an inability to handle my life, when before I always did. I handled everything, and then I could not. And came the fear my body would betray me. Or that I will betray myself. Lack of confidence. Letting events over which I have no control define me, and not my own strengths and self-determination. As I write this I have the certainty, the absolute knowledge that I will handle anything that comes. Even this scary and embarrassing lack of control. I am sure that this confidence and conviction only came very recently as a direct result of work I am doing on this board. Nomad, thank you very much for sharing with me and others. Thank you for the opportunity to become aware of and acknowledge myself for changing. [/QUOTE]
