Oh my.... fear can be quite a booger to deal with. I used to be afraid of engaging with others to the extent that I avoided contact. Then, of course, being alone doesn't calm the demons in the mind now, does it? Some nights, I just lay there in bed with all these worries and anxieties blasting through my brain. I cannot shut down, I cannot make myself have "happy" thoughts. My pulse remains at a rapid pace almost all the time. It's like my "fight or flight" mechanism is stuck on, and I cannot make it go away. I am changing the place where I "live" too, and that adds the aspect of unknown boundries.
