Don't ignore it, just accept it.

6 Replies

For years I've been fighting and fighting and fighting some loss of control, but I am done fighting. If I lose control, so be it. If I faint, whatever, I'll wake up and it'll be over. Im sick of trying to feel normal. Im ready to accept feeling strange and lightheaded and out of it. Who cares? I can still enjoy my life. And most of all I am DONE. COMPLAINING.

That's the right attitude! And according to this article, none of those things will happen anyway (sorry if I already shared this with you).

You are on your way now. I remember when I got to this point and it was then that I started to over come the problem. Good for you. Pam

Honestly, this is gonna help you so much. Acceptance often leads to the symptoms diminishing.

Have you got the DARE response book by Barry McDonnagh ?

It all about not fighting but accepting like you are saying

Also reassuring you you won't lose control or faint etc

You have the right attitude I just thought it will re-enforce how you are feeling It's very very good

Take care and all the best
