The Anxiety Book and other Stuff


Page 242, "the feeling list"

As I was skimming the list my eyes jumped from the column of "positive feelings" to the list of "negative feelings."  My eyes seemed more comfortable there.  I skimmed down the list and stopped at "ashamed."  Just stopped--stared at the word--still, as I write, keep glancing at the word...there it is, followed by other words, "awkward, bitter, and bored."  All of the words seem like comfortable and descriptive friends.  I also pause at "dependant."  I somewhat linger on "disgusted" and "embarrassment" and "misunderstood."
Well, now it feels too deliberate the the accidental exercise is over.

Ok, skim the "positive feelings" list--out of the whole list I am most comfortable with "strong" and "loving."

Oh, page 242

So, the book, the whole book is awesome, not sure if it's legal to picture it here or not.  By the way, why am I always reading it backwards?  Am I really afraid to delve into it?I've had the thing by my bed for 2-3 years now.
