| 155605 | 2003-06-27 22:02:00 | Perhaps some have "Kakorrhaphiophobia" in inverse? Rather than trying to say something useful, and risking failure, pointless abuse is a safer camp to be in? I am thinking of an example of "Kakorrhaphiophobia" in a friend of mine who has her dreams, but will not do what it takes to make them possible. Dreams are after all safe and comforting (one day i'm going to.......etc etc) Doing is really really scary as one might fail. .Chris |

| 155608 | 2003-06-28 00:04:00 | Lovely comment Phoenix. That made Purrr purr. Does anyone here realise that kakorrhaphiophobia is a recognised phobia and is documented as such. We are not talking about a generalised fear of failure here, or fear to take a step that could change your life. It is an extreme fear of failure complete with whole body anxiety attacks that can precede an event weeks in advance. Fear of switching on a PC that has been fiddled with is as remote as social phobia is from shyness. Purrr has an aunt who suffered for years from agoraphobia that required years of therapy and gentle understanding from many others for her to overcome it to the point where she could leave the house almost symptom-free. Do not view any phobia lightly. Snag |

If you don't have the maturity or sensibility to use a proper account to make your rebuke, and can't say things in a non offensive way, then don't bother saying them. It's pointless and add's unnecessary data to the PF1 database. >You cannot do this in real life - Don't do it here. Amen CyberChuck! |
