Rainbow, The headphones from my understanding are fine but make sure you balance it with the masked and then turn the volume down a little more. And just as long as you don't get headaches ur fine.
And I've gone through alot of the same stuff you have. I think in stage 1 I was somewhat needy and anxiety was coming up. when I started stage two I had no desire or care for women really but I still enjoy interacting with them. I had a week hiatus kind of.. so I started over with stage two and the neediness has creeped up again but during that week of little exposure everything opened up even more so I can see what kind of potential I have and where I will be real soon. It's pretty awesome.. also keeping eye contact really helps me stay in the moment.. and If I'm nervous that's hard to control sometimes but it seems like confronting it and just fighting through it has worked for me. I'm glad to see your good progress. I'm also doing wild stuff now as well to get through whatever hang ups I have. I've been going into grocery stores doin my thing with a low v cut neck... and I have a mane of chest hair and everyone checks it out lol. Before this would have been crazy for me to do but the other day I was feeling that way and said "it doesnt even matter". Kind of like that Linkin Park song.
