Shannon's Journal Discussion

[maxx55]

Hey Shannon! It's great to see you back here.

I was curious, if CatMan used EPRHA 2.0 solo instead of alternating between OF5G and EPRHA 2.0, how much longer would it take to eliminate that fear? I'm just looking for a guestimate.

I would guess 2-3 times as long. Then again, it could be releieved faster if the fear is an outgrowth of something emotional that is healed by EHPRA 2.0. It could go either way - I don't know. Which is why I suggested that approach.

In regards to my situation,

there are some things that trigger fear in me, but it's like only specific circumstances. Hanging with friends, I feel more confident and bold than I do by myself, I feel it and I express myself more. If I go to talk to a girl I'm attracted to, I may feel a bit nervous, but it goes away in 5 minutes after I do it. My main thing is fear of dealing with the people in some of my required classes. I feel guilt and shame about not having friends in some classes when everyone is talking to each other, and I'm afraid of what they'll think since they don't see me talking to anyone. (of course, I've tried to start some convos, doesn't work in the class and only that class). I also probably have some fear towards sex because of past experiences and I guess I could say I have a more difficult time expressing myself sexually.

I guess Shannon what I'm asking here is do you still recommend EPRHA 2.0 for me like you did a few weeks ago? I just wanted to give you some more information to see if you hold steady on your recommendation. Aside from the fear issues specified, I know EPRHA 2.0 should handle the rest in a timely manner, but I'm still willing to run it for a year if need be.

Also, since EPRHA 2.0 is supposed to transform anger into something useful, would it be beneficial for me to avoid tapping out anger? (I know there's plenty of it in there)

Thanks!
