F* everything and run... that used to be my slogan. It is paralyzing you cannot function when you are in that fear. You can talk it to death and it doesn't change. What changes fear is action. If you are afraid to ride your bicycle then you need to get on that bike and ride! If you are afraid of spiders, well I wouldn't recommend petting them.. LOL but I would recommend maybe being in the same room and looking at them. What ever it is you have to do because what happens is when you walk through the fear you all of a sudden are empowered.

Zen I feel for you, I've been there.. and I probably was overweight to hide myself so I didn't have to feel the feelings of the fear.. I could numb myself with food. It has occurred to me on a few occasions not to put myself in situations where I could be the victim of a violent crime. I am just ultra sensitive about who is around me at all times, day and night. The guys at work pick me up and stop me from leaving sometimes just to piss me off.. I can't fight them to save my life. So I know I wouldn't have a chance in hell to fight off an attacker. Hang in there and keep posting here about it.. Janie
