F*** Your Fears

March 13, 2015 by Drexelle Leave a Comment

What are you afraid of?

A year ago, I made a long list.  My list included:

  • Heights
  • Swimming in cold water
  • Popping balloons
  • Running a long distance
  • Roller coasters
  • Meeting my favorite celebrities (this didn’t terrify me more than make me embarrassingly giddy (poor David))
  • Scary Movies
  • Zombies
  • Telling other people I struggled with panic attacks

When I first battled with panic attacks, I honestly couldn’t imagine getting up in the morning and doing anything “normal” without feeling overwhelmed with fear and worry.  I felt useless, incapable.

It was horrible to feel so weak.

One program recommended I try something: List out your fears. Then, face them.

So I did.

And guess what happened the past year?

To name a few

what’s facing your fears like?

EXHILARATING

I can’t fairly describe how empowering it is to go from quivering with fear as I take the steps to face one…to feeling like superwoman after it’s done.

My new list (still brainstorming more):

  • Running a half marathon
  • Swimming in the ocean
  • Climbing 50 feet
  • Skiing
  • Tall water slides
  • Eating snails

So what are you afraid of?

Name your fears.

Then, f*** them (face ’em).

what fears have you faced?  

I would love, love to hear your stories!  Message me!

Post ’em on Instagram with #overcomingfears!
