I have had a fear of "running out" of stuff, money, food, etc. I think it's the Depression gene (as in the Great Depression, but I have the other kind, too.) I am working on changing my thoughts, too. It is amazing how many negative statements immediately float to the top of my head. So now I am rethinking them. Like if my head says "I never exercise" I rethink it as "I could exercise more if I want to" or something else positive. So for the fear of being hungry you could say "When I am hungry I will have a ________" and fill in the blank with some kind of food that you like that is good for you. I fear the food I choose sometimes so it's logical I might fear my hunger if I am afraid of what I might eat. I am coming out of a HUGE fear phase. All kinds of fear driven thoughts. I am willing to do the mental work to get rid of them now.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06400492104098347769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668796948874901630.post-83462938757879962432007-06-15T08:26:00.000-06:002007-06-15T08:26:00.000-06:00I hear ya!

Its about changing your thoughts (especially the sabotaging ones) and she talks about the fear of hunger. Its not too preachy, I recommend it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
