Given that I used to have fear and anxiety over traveling and impending bad weather, it’s amazing that I’m writing this from aboard a cramped RV, zipping through the New York area en route to the ShmooCon security conference in Washington D.C.
A blizzard with up to 20 inches of snow is scheduled to dump on DC while I’m there.
Yet I’m calm — even enjoying myself.
How I overcame that fear has been told over many previous blog posts. The posts that tell it best are here and here.
I’m grateful.
The point being that those who suffer from fear, anxiety and mental illness can overcome it all.
The work to get there is hard and painful. But it can be done.
