I Am Afraid of Failure

Holding back for fear of not succeeding. Closing myself off because avoidance seems like the safest path. I run because I think I won't come out ahead...sometimes I run because I know that I will. There are times I might hide my desires because I'm convinced that once obtained I'll inevitably lose them. All of it amounts to giving up before I've even given myself the chance to lose. Failing at failure perhaps?

@SW-User It's a combination of the two...pretty much just fear, lol.

@SW-User I'm not sure how to explain it but as much as I hate losing, sadness and pain, I actually enjoy it too.
Feeling the darkness and pain to me is a way of really feeling.
