The fear of being unable to satisfy more than two women in one night.

I have been fighting with agoraphobia for the last year and a half. I'm finally starting to make headway and have been enjoying working in my garden.

Spiders.


Oh, "willing to challenge"!


Yeah, no.

I usually just scream til someone with a penis comes to rescue me.


There's also death.

How would I challenge that?

Why does the rescuer have to have a penis?

I've been challenging my fear of people and will soon challenge my fear of making journeys on my own.

The only way I know to get over a fear is to just do it.
Wonder if its one of those things if you let it go and it doesnt come back it was never yours?

I'm willing to challenge my fear of medicine balls and buy one of those for myself. I was looking at all the medicine ball workouts on the Internet, today. :)

I challenged over 119 fears in the past two years successfully! YAY!! !

But I am still scared of Crane flies, wasps and moths... But in comparison to all the others, they feel rather trivial!
