Back after a long break - Overcoming Fear

[Shannon]

I am Loving this sub

I was a little unsure what it was doing the last few days until I "forgot" to play it last night --- My dreams became chaotic, fearful, etc

Where every other night the dreams have had a theme of fear, but also courage and overcoming.

So I woke up this morning in a bad state (there was other stuff going on yesterday eve as well, anger, and I used porn, etc.) --- Turned on the Sub and an hour later I'm back to that Zen state.

It doesn't solve all of my problems, but it puts me in a state where I can solve them. And how it changes my feeling about my job is amazing. This is cool.

Also walked by a woman who was a 9/10 for me yesterday and she gave me an "I would fuck you look" --- I probably would've said something but I was on my phone and missed the moment. I was pretty horny/upset after that which is why I ended up looking at porn. But it's OK. It's a sign in the right direction and I have to pick it up and continue what I've been doing, including ditching the porn. I have to get comfortable with accepting the female attention I want and deserve and not letting it trigger so many emotions.

OF won't solve your problems.  It will give you the instructions on how to solve them for yourself.  It's not just putting you into an appropriate state, it is working you through dealing with and overcoming your fears and their causes without having to consciously experience the challenging parts of the process.  But that "protection" requires proper use, as you have seen.

The process is also a slow one.  It's like trying to walk forward into a firehose blast that is only barely less strong that your ability to walk forward.  Progress is made, but it's slow, and if you stop trying it isn't stable until you've advanced far enough in using the program.

That's why it's supposed to be used for so long per run in v1 and v2.
