hanging on

It is incredible when you read someone else's story that is so similar to your own, and you think, yeah that's definitely OCD related. Yet you look at yourself with your own insight and you question EVERYTHING.

Needed your comment. When my adrenaline pumps, my thoughts do too. Then I’m locked in a battle I should be ignoring. I’m going to try your words, oh yeah, it’s my anxiety again. Thanks.

This reminds me of a song from my favorite band, The Who... Did you ever sleep in a bear pit With apple cores and mice along? Did you ever lay on ice and grit Or search for a place where the wind was gone? Did you ever tramp up endless hills Past cozy homes with secret beds? Did you ever dream of a suicide pill And wake up cold to the smell of bread? Well, I have slept there badly twice And shared my straw with scratchin' mice Although you'll find some deep brown hair I'll tell you something for nothing There ain't no bears in there Not a single bear in there

Hello. Could you please tell me where did you find this picture and does it also come without the text? This picture is from my dreams. This is what I dream of. People who know me think I am nuts because everyone else is scared of bears and I dream of hugging a big bear like this. My husband tells me that if I went into the woods and saw a bear, I would give the bear a heart attack because all people run away from him and I would run towards him. I understand that bears are dangerous and that there is great probability that I would get killed. But I just can't feel the fear. I have no idea why bears. I love dogs, had 3 dogs, now I have 3 cats. I think we are each other's toys. We cuddle all the time, we play together, I groom them, they participate in everything I do, they express their opinions, approvals and especially disapproval. I adore them. I love them with all my heart. I love all animals. When I was little I dreamt of hugging a tiger, playing with it,... As grown up, my husband is very thankful that I have never come across one so far and hopes I won't in the future. If I do, I will either be dead or we will have a pet bear. I wonder how I would react if I ever came face to face with one. I am truly worried because I am unable to feel the fear towards them. I just want to hug them. I have dreamt while sleeping about me being friends with a bear, or seeing a bear in the woods coming towards me and instead of attacking me, he hugs me. I saw exactly this image in my dreams, except for the color of the hair. Mine is not so dark. I would love to have this picture on the wall in my bedroom. Or a similar if I can't get this one. It's amazing how ocd makes me scared of almostv everything on lifel, of my own shadow so to say, but with bears where the fear would be in place and rational, I can't feel fear. Thanks for posting this picture I can't stop looking at it. It makes me feel so calm and relaxed and worry free 🐻❤️😀.

I actually have this as my lock screen on my phone! So weird lol
