Stress Center Peer Support

I have taken Zoloft for ten years. I did gain weight but then I joined TRIM and lost the weight. Then I went back to my regular eating habit and gained it back. Recently my father passed away and I got really depressed and anxious which makes me lose weight. I lost 20lbs. Since I've joined this prog...

I didn't tell my husband I was having panic attacks until they got really bad. He has a hard time being supportive because he doesn't ever feel panic...he's very relaxed and easy going all the time and never gets nervous! He gets very uncomfortable when I talk about the attacks or the program. At fi...

Yes, I get this too, but the more attention you pay to it, the worse it will be. Don't be surprised if you give up this symptom and another one pops up. Its called symptom shifting.

Depression is not a sin. Remember that Saint Paul was bi-polar and this was the thorn in his flesh that he talked about.

It's funny how everyone is different. I wish I had your problem :) I have gained weight since my anxiety started. When my physical symptoms act up- I eat something. It makes me feel better for the moment. Of course, this has caused me to gain 20 lbs in the last 2 years :( I am working on trying to f...

No, I'm not mad at all. I'm just answering the question. The program is a good program, but the content has not changed in the 20+ years since it first came out. So if someone has a copy of the older version, why should they spend the money again on the same thing? And if the person asked if she sho...

The extra stuff is just bells and whistles. Deedee, a relaxation tape is a relaxation tape... whether it's of a waterfall, or of the ocean, or a walk in the meadow, or anything. That does not justify buying the program all over again. If anyone WANTS to spend the money again and buy the "new" progra...

Don't waste your money. It's the same thing. Nothing has changed in 20 years. I have the original tape program from the 80's. I ordered what I thought would be the new program recently, and promptly sent it back when I found out it was the very same thing, except different people are talking on it. ...

What side effects did you have?
