Cherophobia or Running from Happiness as Fast as I could!
A month ago I ran into this strange little word, cherophobia, which means an aversion to happiness. Huh? Avoiding happiness? Who would do such a silly thing? Well, me for one. I realized I've been setting myself up for disappointment for a long time. What made me realize this? This website, the Wealthy Affiliate. As I worked through the first part of the training, the possibility of what I could achieve here dawned on me and I almost ran. If I was a success, I would be happy and that scared me. As a child my life was a constant pattern of bad things happening, usually right after something good happened and in my child's mind, I became convinced that the bad things only happened because I was happy. I have kept this belief hidden in my subconscious until I landed here. Now, I'm working on it and on my website and for the first time telling my story and not being afraid to be happy. I have not just one website, I now have 3 in the works, as well as started training as a Life Coach. So I stopped running.
thank you all!

So glad you stopped running Pamela! Cherophobia is no laughing matter, pun may have been subconsciously intended. I know very well what you're talking about tho the word is new to me. No doubt you'll make a first rate Life Coach! All the best. / Goran
