Once again I find myself commenting not on articles you’ve written, but those you recommend.

The first artcle by Cath does have some good recommendations, however I feel they would be disasterous for me to follow. Been there, done that feelings welled up, closely followed by the regrets in my actions. Those of us who struggle with addictions will ALWAYS choose excitement first and guess what? Most often nothing to do with what I might be passionate about, or if there is, reason has completely left the building as I follow that path. So ignoring my fear can be and has been among my worst ideas. Both fortunately and unfortunately, I read more caution than help in this article, which in the end was helpful, as I’d steer clear of these excercises.

The article by Tom Volkar about fear is much more logical and grounded, the better way for even people like me to proceed.
