Thank-you so much for this article. It is what I am going through now. I embarrassed myself once while in a milder frenzy and have fantasized about doing something that would have embarrassed me again. Fortunately/unfortunately I am very introverted, shy and insecure, so I tend to live in my head. That means I am slow to act and extremely passive, but it also means that I build castles in the air, with little basis in reality. Anyway, it helps to recognize what I am experiencing for what it is.![]()
