I just listened to session 1 for my third time and I can't believe how much of it I can relate to! The part where they started talking about fears and the guy that said he was afraid to get close to a cliff because he might jump off, I do this exact thing. There are a lot of things that I don't like doing because I'm afraid that I'm going to hurt myself or someone else. It's almost like I would do it intentionally just because I want to know how other people would see me. This is really scary and this is the kind of stuff that I have never told anyone including my boyfriend. I mean, how can you tell that to someone who has never experienced it?

Hi DEEP THINKER, I too have gotten really nervous when say others are near me and I may harm them. For me, it's a doubt that I have in me that I can't take care of them or someone else may come by and take them and I can't protect them. I'm scared that I won't be there for them. How ludricuis can I be! I'm not a therapist, but I would think depending on your relationship with that person, would signify seriousness/non-seriousness of the situation. I hope you can relax about this and talk to someone who is close to you to see how best to proceed. You shouldn't have to be haunted by this. I really wish you the best and hope you can find someone to trust to work through this. Best of luck.
