Re: my ibs and fear connection-long post!       03/07/04 07:42 PM Edit Reply Quote hawkeye Reged: 06/16/03 Posts: 705 Loc: NYC Kelly, I'm really interested to hear how you confront these fears. I tried for a while to sort of answer them with things like " I can handle this" etc. I'm not usually the affirmation type, but I tried. I found that it seemed to just amplify the fears and the obsessiveness about it. Now I just say "stop" to myself, and try not to indulge the thoughts with any sort of attention. It works better but I'm really struggling. Last night was so miserable, even though it felt like progress because I didn't freak out, I still was so unhappy and uncomfortable. I'm pretty good about facing other painful things in my life but htis is definitely really hard for me. ... dan -------------------- Ladies & gentlemen take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice.
