[Superman]

Well I'm not sure why almost no one is commenting but I have guesses. I find this "new" old concept of Exposure Therapy so amusing because of the huge role it has played in my life. When people meet with me, and even if they are workmates for years, they often have the impression I am very calm, relaxed and unflappable. This is the surface presentation however. In reality, I am very anxious. I often feel out of breath as though I am not getting enough oxygen. Breathing is a conscious thing for me, because of anxiety. As a child, I was fearful. Frightened.

And from this, because of this, I have learned to do scary things. On purpose. I had no choice. It was either that or live a life in fear. For example: As a person who often has a feeling of being out of breath...I am learning SCUBA diving. Exposure Therapy? Story of my life.
