Oh, finally someone said it!! It's sure you will be lying, since you're not
positive actually! There's only one way for you to feel positive, which is
by feeling positive! But, then, you won't need affirmations, will you? :-)
I think a better way to deal with it is trying some of those fast therapies,
like RET. They will work on false beliefs, probably work with you on stage
and work on it there while there's nobody around. Then, maybe ( I'm
guessing ) invite your friends only, and work on it gradually.

I'd really like to hear more on that. I can remember some discussions on it,
but the Archives....sniff, sniff, sniff...

Just try not to raise your larynx when stating that! :-)

My new teacher, who must be joining/have joined this list these days, has me
hold it down with my hand, so that I get used to it. Maybe she can say
something if she reads this.
