Perhaps the doctors on this list can back me up here - but doesn't the
physical response of "excitment" match the response to "fear"? It is my
understanding that the body produces excess adreneline in both cases. So,
when you get that rush feeling - try to use it! Say - wow, I am so excited!
and then accept the feeling. Adrenaline can be helpful is we choose to accept
it as a gift. If you try to fight it - well, that'll just make the situation
worse.
That, as least, is what I try to do.
