Today I had lunch with an awesome woman who has been invovled in OA for 3 years. She seemed like she really understood the program. We talked about turning things over to God and realizing that God is the one in control of not only our food but our lives. I promised that I would do more journaling. I guess it does not matter what you journal, just things that need to get out of your head.
I talked to my therapist today about fears. I have a fear of giving up control to God. I fear heights, driving and riding in cars, I fear lack of control. I also fear social situations such as talking at OA meetings. I know that talking at meetings helps with the recovery from overeating but I just can't seem to do it. feeling the serenity of accepting things i can't change and changing things I can will goes a long way toward letting go of the fear. I am going to remember to site the serenity prayer to myself to remind me that things just ARE sometimes.
