Thanks Shannon. That does make a lot of sense. Ill work on accepting change bit by bit. Also focusing more on my emotions which is something i've had a big issue with my whole life. Even though at the moment I feel quite emotionally stable I have to learn to flow with the emotions. Its interesting this came up as I was discussing a fear with my therapist this week around fearing I will be stuck in an emotional state forever.
I also had a bit of a revelation this morning after reading your post I actually fear that my fears aren't being dealt with and that i'm just covering them up until they get triggered off again. This again stems from all the change work I did last time and feeling like my fears had been dealt with when in actual fact I had just stuck a false kind of confidence on top of my fears. I do realize that my fears are being dealt with and I can tell that because of how much more relaxed i'm becoming and how I am slowly bit by bit starting to act differently in situations.
As for AM had an interesting situation last night where someone elbowed me in the stomach usually I would have passed this off and been to scared to react in the situation but last night I got quite angry at the guy and asked him what he thought he was doing. I took it a bit to far and ended up getting really angry at the guy which almost ended up in a fight between his friends and my friends but thankfully left the situation before anything happened.

The only person in life that can ever hold you back is yourself. So get out of your own way and start living the life you always dreamed of
