Re: Question about positive talk

Well, I have type 1 diabetes. It is sometimes hard to find that thought that will drag me out of bed each morning. For some reason I manage to find it though. I have hypothyroidism so often my first thought is I have to take the pill. Then I can go back to sleep. As far as my bipolar goes, I feel my...

I'm taking less anxiety meds and I'm a mess.

I'm an anxious mess. It's affecting my driving. I'm struggling with this right now. I'm very anxious. I'm trying to replace my negative thoughts with positive thoughts. Believe me, in my situation it is very hard. I try to have a positive attitude despite hypothyroidism, bipolar, and type 1 diabetes...

Combatting Stress and Depression Program for empaths/psychics

There is a whole subculture out there of people who feel they are psychic. Granted, being psychic is a real state of mind. An empath is somebody who feels the emotions of others as if their own for example. I would like to ask the Stress Center if they have any part of the program geared towards suc...

Re: I did it !!!

Congratulations. I'm impressed. You succeeded in driving across town and you thought you weren't going to be able to do it. You've gotten past that by now I assume, through making progress.

Re: What correlations do you see between Lessons 7 & 4?

I had an unrealistic expectation this month that I would get a refund from my gym which charged me $70 instead of the usual $24.50. I wanted to get that refund and I didn't wind up with a refund because they don't give retroactive refunds. I knew I wouldn't get one, it didn't matter how assertive I ...

I'm a different person.

I just realized in listening to Session 6 that I'm no longer the angry person I used to be. I was once manic, angry, and ranted a lot. Now I'm a calmer person who doesn't rant and rave. I have learned assertive behavior. I'm really not who I used to be. This is my second time going through the progr...

I've cut all the caffeine from my diet.

I still feel anxious. I would like to mention this because in one of my other posts I mentioned I have three major illnesses. Type 1 diabetes, bipolar, and hypothyroidism. I'm trying to mend my body. I only have one hot chocolate per day and occasionally ashitaba green which is a caffeine free stimu...
