that is my point, ewhaz - one shouldn't focus on something good in order to ignore something bad. though, people also tend to do just the opposite - to focus on something bad in order to ignore something good, only because they fear the change.

those patients don't actually focus on fear itself. only very few of them do that, when they fall to panic attacks. most focus on their perceived situation, either by going into depression ("poor me, no one can help me..."), or manic condition ("i'm not ill, i'm feeling great!"). or even manic depression, also known as "emotional rollercoaster", when they often switch between the two.

ok, there's really nothing more to be said about this. i think this is a good time to quietly step away.
