I will be going to a concert Friday night in a very big arena with lots of people. I have struggled with this in the past, but since I've been through the program I plan on not letting it bother me. I will go and have a great time and not worry about the crowd. Please wish me luck that I can remember my steps and follow through on my plan to have fun!!

Hey, Rainbow, congratulations on your positive attitude! You might want to take some of your cards with you to help remind you of positive thoughts and skills. I hope you have a wonderful time.

I second what Julie said. Great job for facing this situation. Concerts used to be a big thing for me too. Just remember...no one is scrutinizing you and there is ALWAYS an out if you need one. You probably won't need to go there though Have a great time and let us know how it goes. We're with you all the way!

hi concert goer! what are you going to see? you are living life - practicing the program - and i'm sure no one will even "know"...if that's what causes your anxiety, as it does mine. take a few deep breaths, and let me know how what program skills you practice that eve that help. best wishes. hzlelz
