I might carry on with more video editing I think.<br><br>I am too sensitive to perceived criticism and reactive to stuff and often feel threatened and sometimes I get overwhelmed. That&#8217;s due to damage I got as a kid growing up.  I manage it better in the main than I used to but it never really goes away. It&#8217;s a nuisance though. I can just feel it trying to kick off but I have found the off switch on this occasion. It doesn&#8217;t always work though.I guess that this my subconscious anxiety trigger at the root of it it. Just a massive insecurity. I think even if I was successful and maybe wealthy I would still have the same demons. Sometimes I can live with them, sometimes they gatecrash and takeover the party. Then you are left with doubt and fear.
