Last night I was catching up on an old comic book that I used to read. The protagonist said something that I’ve never considered before; she said “it’s okay to not overcome your fear.” 

At first I was like: Tf? but then I thought of it in a different light. For years I’ve struggled with generalized anxiety disorder, I’ve taken medication and have seen several therapists, yet I’m still struggling with it. One of my biggest triggers being public speaking. But maybe it’s okay if don’t overcome my fear of public speaking, or master dealing with anxiety. 

So many times have I gotten anxious at the thought of NOT overcoming my anxiety. Ridiculous. But it’s okay. 

I’m just curious as to what you guys think about this.
