I don't try 100% at anything I do, and accept my mediocrity at school and life becuase I am afraid of failure.
This session again concentrated on my Dr. figuring out the underlying controls that prevent me from being happy.
I'm anxious/nervous and all this stuff becuase I fear failure. I can accept criticism only if I am not trying 100%.
In the rare event I give all of myself to someone or a task, I better be damn sure it is going to turn out ok.
I'm never going to be what I dream unless I can embrace failure as a part of the process and not feel like shit for fucking up from time to time.
Next session is going to be about strategies to do just this.
---------------------- I feel much bette, and can't wait till fridays meeting. I think I am going to get over my fear and really blossom into the person I want to be.
The wait is killing me, I hope it lasts.

it makes so much sense when you read it like that. I had seen some of your non-studying posts before, and i always thought that you should stop complaining about it, and just sit down and do your work, lol.
But yeah... your Dr. seems to know what he's talking about. Atleast that first post made perfect sense to me... knowing the problem is half the battle won i think. So good luck! :-) i hope it'll all work out for you. It's a terrible feeling when you're not able to be who you'd want to be.

hey George, I appreciate the support and kind words.
I always posted about how I was posting to put off studying. I'm now struggling to get past that, and I think I will do ok.
your last line is very telling.
"It's a terrible feeling when you're not able to be who you'd want to be."
cheers mate

i am really affraid of criticism.
what I found out myself though, is that my fears, which I couldn't understand or find a reason for having, were holding me back.
I didn't know why I couldn't study, or why I was always nervous and anxious.
I have sought the advice and treatment of a professional, and so far, it has been everything I could have imagined.
I'm learning how I can act on my dreams instead of just dreaming. I'm enabling myself to be me, and it is a fine feeling.
