It's okay to be afraid. No one thinks any less of you for it. But you need to detach yourself from her and start your NG recovery.


Wow, this an eye opener for me. It fits perfectly into the things I have been pondering on the last weeks:
#1 "We are defined by our fears".

#2 "Stop helping people to oppress you"

I always have been waiting for the moment, when I would not feel the fear. You are right. I guess it would be some kind of a mental disease not to be afraid of dangerous stuff.
Wow, I will work with this in the following days.

Thank you
