Just thought I'd check back in to keep the positive vibe going,seeing as I came and dumped when I was stressing.
My symptom is on the way out... you know...that fleeting moment when the skies part and you know you've finally gained the higher ground against your fear and worry, and GUILT.
I never really payed attention in great detail to the CD set of HBP. I bought it for someone else, and had no problems at the time I listened to it. Now that I've been having a new 'thing-a-ma-bob' I was a bit more attentive. I had noticed Sarno had modified a few things since the publication of the book.
One thing was the word...GUILT.
Guilt is of course tied up with anger. I've always been able to identify with the anger, but it took Sarno adding that one word for something to click in my head.
Not only was I ANGRY and in a RAGE at the onset of symptoms, but I was simultaneously feeling GUILT. In fact, it was the GUILT that triggered my anger, as I was feeling it about something that I had rationalized and explained away to my conscious mind (and anybody who would listen) but than again, we're not really rational, are we?
Regardless...once again for the hundredth time, it was just another phantom meant to keep me away from the realm of the emotional.
