One way my fear holds me back is.....
The fear is I can't trust anyone. I am lonely and hurt. The divorce from my stbx is taking a toll on my belief of ever being able to trust another in to my life to share
i'm afraid i'm not good enough so i hold back from going after what i really want
One way that fear holds me back is that it makes it hard for me to let go and have fun when I'm out doing stuff with friends.
It prevents me from giving my energy for higher productivity and more work, to earn what I need and solve my problems.
One fear I have that holds me back is the fear of being judged or used. I have experienced both of these so much that I hardly ever leave my hous. I'm very lonely and hurt by everything that has happened to me these past months.
I base my entire life around my fears, to such extent that it affects those around me. All of my major life choices are more or less being made for me and I am not fighting it do to fears that quite frankly wouldn't budge most people. But they paralyse me. I've never been like this before, until I got married. I let my emotional guard down and went from being fearless to being crippled with the stuff. I don'r think I can live this way, but I am trying to outrun the fears and see if I can just avoid the problem entirely.
When I went to meditation last night, some people were friendly and talking to me but I'm so socially awkward and anxious that as soon as I answered them I kind of bolted. That's what I do most of the time even though I really want more friends. I am just so afraid of what they'll think of me bc I am so weird.
One fear that holds me back is that I'd be alone.
One way my fear holds me back is that it causes me to drive half an hour to my university, park, and then turn back and drive another half hour home because I'm too afraid to get out of the car and go to class.
My fear holds me back because sometimes I'm afraid to face the unknown.
