Anna,

You need to get to a place where you are no longer fearful of the anxiety. This means working the program again, and even again if necessary. Let it open doors for you to other books and sources that will help you to move through your fears. You are still afraid of the anxious feelings. You ...

I too have a 19 year old daughter. She is just now finishing up her first year in college but during Xmas break she asked to bring her boyfriend home to visit. I said ok and he stayed with us for a couple of days until she had to return to school. She had met him while attending a college friend's ...

P.S. Thanku so much for the inspiration- this speaks to me!

It's probably quite common. I just said, "goodbye" to my past so I can move on...but now I have to get rid of a lot of physical things that are holding me back. Ready to live again and stop just existing. Now have to physically clear house of past ties.

I went through this quite a few years ago. In the past I had always been able be excused due to minor children, but finally they dropped that. I went to my Dr., who wrote a note and sent me to a therapist. The therapist wrote a permanent excuse letter. I do find courtrooms interesting and have even ...

Holly,

Unless we have a physiological cause for our problem meds can help, but they are not an end in themselves. It's great if meds can help us feel better, but our bodies and brains can adjust to the meds we take and we can have to take more for them to work or they may quit working over a period ...
