The Hardest Part of Healing is Facing Your Fears.

Healing from traumatic experiences can be a difficult journey, and conquering fear is often one of the toughest parts. As someone who has experienced various traumatic events throughout their life, I know this all too well. Although I am not a licensed therapist or counselor, I have learned a lot about healing from my own experiences and wanted to share my insights.

One of the first steps in conquering fear is identifying what scares you and why. This can be a challenging task, as fears can be deeply rooted in our subconscious minds. For me, it often required meditation and some CBD or THC to deal with the anxiety of going deep into my subconscious. I also had to distinguish between fears that were imposed on me by others and those that were truly my own.

Once I identified my true fears, the next step was to purge the pain associated with them.

This meant facing my fears head-on and pushing through the discomfort. For example, I used to have a fear of spiders, even though I had no legitimate reason to be scared of them. Through self-reflection and spiritual exploration, I learned that spiders can actually represent protection and good luck. Once I embraced this perspective, I was able to conquer my fear of spiders and free myself from its hold.

However, the toughest part of conquering fear is often the emotional work that comes with it. For me, this meant confronting the pain, trauma, and fear that had blocked my heart from truly loving someone. Through this process, I had to ask myself difficult questions about why I had never let anyone fully into my heart and why I had blocked them from getting too close. It was like playing Russian Roulette with my feelings, forcing me to deal with emotions that I had bottled up for over 30 years.

But the work was worth it. Once I cleared my subconscious and freed my heart, I finally understood my true fear - the fear of vulnerability. With this understanding, I was able to let go of my fear and embrace the possibility of falling in love. And when I do finally fall in love, I know that I will be capable of giving my whole heart to my partner.

In conclusion, conquering fear is not an easy task, but it is a necessary one for anyone who wants to live a fulfilling life. By identifying our true fears, purging the pain associated with them, and confronting the emotional work that comes with it, we can free ourselves from the hold that fear has on our lives. It is a journey that requires patience, self-reflection, and self-love, but the rewards are immeasurable.
