News Woman Who Cannot Feel Fear May Help In Treating Ptsd

[stacey]

well, actually I think that having no dear would be a disadvantage. something like not being able to feel pain in your hands. Sort of good, until you touch something hot that can hurt you, and you have no idea its hurting you until you look down.

There is something annoying about it...but like you, I can't place my figure on it.

I always describe myself as not being scared enough. They keep trying to give me meds that numb me out, when what I really need are meds that make me feel. I guess the numb comes from being desensitized. Four abusive relationships explains how that happened. However, knowing what to call it doesn't make me sensitive again. Neither do the meds.

And you're right. Not being scared is a very dangerous place to be. At least it has been for me.

I scared the heck out of a lot of people because I'm not scared of anything, not even demons. When you've been numbed and been treated like I have been, you become immune to feeling within yourself but you can read others. My way of thinking is that the worst has happened to me; I feel omnipotent. I know it sounds weird and sounds strange to others but because of this, I have been asked to be a laywoman for exorcisms. They say it takes a lot out of you but somehow those who deal with demonic possession think I can do it because I can turn off my emotions when it comes down to dealing with this kind of Hell. Why I don't know....

My first thought was sign me up, I am tired of it. But yeah, I see the problems. in not experiencing fear, but when you live with debilitating fear, that has problems of it's own. When you can't do what you need to do to take care of yourself because of fear...
