Afraid Of Ending Up Alone? Article Says It's All In The Mind

Are you afraid you are going to end up alone? Third Age's Rita Paries has this word of advice:

"(d)eal with the fear by dealing with the fear. In other words, don’t do something that you think will help you not be alone. Instead directly deal with your feelings of fear."

Below are excerpts from Paries' article -- click here for the full posting.

1. Face the feelings.
Conjure up the worst possible scenario you are afraid of and face it as if it were true.

2. Get to an emotional place where you know that you will be ok.
Bring yourself to the point where you know that even if you were to be alone for a time you would be ok.

3. Ask yourself if you are really meant to be alone.
For almost everyone, the truth is that they are not meant to be alone.

4. Now work with your mind.
Work with your mind on believing that you will be connected and loved.
