Hey Adrien,
I can definitely relate to what you are saying about self-doubt and what if's. It's crazy how our minds can play with us, isn't it? But like you are learning, we control our thoughts! And even if we have these automatic scary "what if?"s, we can know that they are just brain garbage. They say OCD is the doubting disease. It's a relief just to know that!

Isn't that the truth! It is interesting how one little stressful incident can start a whole chain of events. How are you doing with the course?

I am going through the course for a second time, and I have not been very good about it recently. Over Christmas I was pretty busy, and didn't make the time to do it. But I am on session 5, ready to move onto 6, so that is good. :) I have the obsessive thinking tape memorized! :P

Memorized? Wow! I can hardly wait to get to that session! I have to say that if I rate myself on the improvements I have made to date, I am about 95% better, which is unbelievable. I LOVE this course!!! :D
