If I keep avoiding it, the fear just gets worse but every time you overcome the fear, it gets a little bit weaker. I would also say deep breathing and talking to a friend or family is helpful as long as they don't make things worse. And if you have to remove yourself from the situation, so be it. Try not to be too hard on yourself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2520887132511317593.post-86940733190744309442008-09-02T22:17:00.000-04:002008-09-02T22:17:00.000-04:00I go to friends and family when I need help making...I go to friends and family when I need help making a decision.

I really value my dad and my brother's opinions.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14978375225313974459noreply@blogger.com
