I can co-sign the analyzing fixation. 100% I'd agree it's fear-based. I mean, when would you ever do such behaviour when you feel no fear? Must be proof it's fear. Although it isn't nearly as crippling as it used to be decades ago, but can still be a serious issue. When I was in my teens or so, it was so deeply prevalent especially about females. Debilitating. Like another member reported about awhile back in a journal I can't recall which, I also still have this issue where somehow I will build out a fictional thing happening, that is awful or negative, or remember a time when I felt the same. Catastrophising, no doubt fueled with all the bullshit from my past around girls etc. It isn't as bad as it used to be either, but it still rears it's ugly head enough to make it notable. Both tendencies, in fact.
So these tendencies definitely seem to be worth mentioning as they seem directly tied to fear and can hold listeners back. Fear takes time to remove, at least for now, who knows what the future brings.
Seems you've been able to break the chains of it, I'm happy to say. I'm overjoyed for you, Darth. You've done real well, you deserve it man.
Really looking forward to your UMS journal!
