Do you have a diagnosed anxiety disorder? I have the Generalized variety myself.
Absolutely LOVED the ball analogy...I CAN relate! But gee, wouldn't it be nice if it were a nice stable mode of transportation? One less likely to tip and spin out of control without hypervigilant attention?
Are you being treated for your anxiety Bill?
I know I'm sounding like a bit of a pill hawker but that is NOT my intention! I only know that when my low dose Celexa took effect...my "Ball" turned more into a skate board...working on self talk, self soothing, DBing all of those things became easier, and periods of effortless balance, taking turns and curves with confidence increased dramatically.
Do I still tumble off sometimes? OF COURSE! (especially when I or CJ are feeling ill)...it's just rarer, and easier to get back on and start moving forward!!!
Okay I'm going to post this and then respond to some other things from your post. (Anxious about losing long posts! )
