Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- No reframe of this is going to work, because what happened really did happen
- I did the scary thing and it went fine, and yet the very next time I’m right back to dreading it as if it never happened
- Ever since what happened I move through life with these flat, absolute rules running underneath everything
- I’ve been focused on the obvious wound
- The memory finally doesn’t sting the way it used to, but the belief it left behind is still running the show
