So - last day of Stage 4 begins soon, I hope.
While I *think* that not much has happened in this stage, I *know* that this is not true. I am travelling and am trying to find new contacts and improve my skills. I had a few downs the last days, but compared to what I had lots of years ago in similar situations, it has changed significantly ( know that I havent been really a recluse at all, but constantly crossfired by my situations I was in job, friends, past, childhood etc, which produced a lot of depression or anxiety ). I am going out into the world, but still am not talking all to much. In fact, I was talking more to people before I started the program, but the reason might be that the fear of not talking or missing something was the incentive. But that fear is gone, so I need to find real reasons to talk people up. And if I don't want it - I don't do it.
I am thinking about continuing after AM 6 with another longterm program, which helps overcoming fear and helps in social situations. BAMM would be cool, but I'd have to apply first. However, there are other possibilities.
