How do you sit with your fear?

Hello fellow Jellies x

I’m interested in how you ‘deal’ with your fears? Particularly ones that are specific. For example I have a day school to go to this weekend in Manchester and I have various fears about it, which have pushed me to question whether I’m capable of doing this? Whether I should do this? Whether I’m ready for it? Why I shouldn’t just be kinder to myself and not go?

Not going is not really an option because that would mean I’d failed myself and really I think I can do it but it still scares the hell out of me. The trouble is, these fears are permeating the rest of my life…my whole week… I’m emotionally eating to numb the pain and dread, which is making me feel worse. I’m just so scared.

I’d love to know how you sit with your fears or whether you drink them down…eat them away… numb them somehow…avoid them? Or deal with them in another way? I really need some help here guys, please and… thank you xx
