“The difficulty is, the ego is making an attempt to guard you from threats and it is vitally, very unclear on what does and doesn’t represent a risk. It tends to assume any form of emotion constitutes a risk, any form of perception into how the thoughts or perceptual system works is greater than you may deal with, so what you need is to slowly get to know your self.” –Tucker Peck, Ph.D.
