I've got something to tell ya
I've got something to say
I chickened out and let myself down this morning 
Even Billy didn't help get myself in a mental state to leave the house.
My question is...
When faced with a challenge how do you prepare/ face it/ psych yourself up for it? |

Faced with a challenge or situation that makes me anxious I don’t focus on what could go wrong I focus on what what my options would be if they did. Know your exits, is my advice. |

“Embrace the suck” means that while the current situation sucks, you have to accept it and work toward changing it. It's not about being in-denial, as much as accepting present discomfort for future success. To embrace the suck means to confront things that make you uncomfortable so that you can surmount it. |

I don’t give myself time to think, or overanalyse it.
I dive right in, and get my hands dirty. Time given to think just starts to put those devils on your shoulder, demons in the head, etc. |

Hugs SS. Next time! 
I prepare by overpreparing a ridiculous amount. I make *all* the lists. I do mental run throughs (sometimes positive, sometimes catastrophic) and I have stress dreams. Do not prepare like me

"Aggressively masturbate to the rocky theme tune.. can face anything after that."
Or you end up lying crumpled, out of breath, in a heap, and a puddle on the bed, too exhausted to do anything, so you just pull the duvet over your head and pretend that the world will go away  |
