What am I afraid of?
Hey everybody,
How you all doing? This is random, I know, and I wasn't sure where to put this, if anywhere. But tonight in therapy, my therapist told me it sounds like there's a lot of fear holding me back. That might well be the case, but how do I figure out exactly what I'm afraid of? As I have no idea!

@TheWanderer27 Makes sense. As I've gotten older, I got into a "comfort zone" which is holding me back from many things. When I was in my 20's, I was stable, but couldn't do all that I wanted b/c of money. Now, I have a business and money is not an issue, but I have become a homebody. So what are you afraid of?
@TransAm85 Hi, thanks for your reply. I understand the homebody bit - now in my 30s, I'm desperate for my own place and my own space, but won't be able to achieve that until next year due to work. I'm afraid I'll never be able to have my own place, that I'll never be in a position financially to support myself, or mentally to look after myself. Sometimes I'm afraid of going outside and hiking, I'm afraid of camping. I'm afraid of rock climbing - all things I love doing, and have to do for my job, and I want to do them, but there's a wall between me and those things that I can't seem to get over. I'm holding myself back, I just don't know why.
Introspect! You will find the answer through self - expression.
