Why feel scared of a head ache? That little demon Anxiety is sitting on your shoulders saying 'Let's give this one a head ache' and whispering in your ear that it's a blood clot or a tumour. Of course it's anxiety, warkie, you can stop planning your funeral* cause you're not going to need it. Just accept the headaches and the burning face, don't fight it, don't feed the flash of first fear with second fear, anxiety thrives on the fear you feed it with. Accept everything as calmly as you can and with the least fear possible. Everything is going to be o.k., warkie, everything is going to be fine

*usagold used this phrase yesterday, I so like it.
