Emotional Hijack


20 years ago 0 10 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Before I read the book " Self Coaching" I believed I had something wrong with my brain. Let me explain. I felt a tremendous urge to " jump" when I was faced with a situation involving heights like going over bridges or going up tall buildings. Sometimes I felt an over powering urge to shock the hell out of people. I literally lost all rationality and felt my mind being hijacked. Im doing better but just the thought of going up to the 20th floor in a Vegas high rise scares the heck out of me. I do feel like an insecure child when facing great heights.There is hope.Ive gotten lazy at times and stoped trying. But it does take time and effort to change the blueprint in our minds!
