Hehehe... have I encountered one?

You betcha.

I was like that myself, for such an awfully long time! I was full of fears, totally avoiding responsibilty for myself. It got me into depression, and only when I hit rock bottom and was standing in my room thinking about jumping out of the window, I started changing my life.

I guess the deepest fear was that if I did take up responsibility for myself, and it wouldn't work out, I would be even more miserable than before.

*eeeew*.

Thanks for the reminder! It really feels good to have worked my way out of that living hell.
