Stress Center Peer Support

Great advice about clearing high emotions. They can definitely destroy a person. I have always been a very emotinal person. As i got older (as I've said in other posts) I thought of it as being compassionate or empathizing with others (putting myself in their shoes, as you said mike). It seems so cr...

Thank you
Good point about not having the stress of a bad relationship!
Hopefully you know how appreciative I am. It is early, and my mornings can be tough. Bad dreams....I wish there was a way to remedy that!
I hope you all have a great day! And thank you, again.

I do definitely need to work on the internal approval, rather than relying on external. Not playing the blame game.

I didn't know what to call the discussion. I am not even sure how to begin. Things were going okay, one might even say very good. And CRASH! into a million little pieces... I don't know where or how to begin. But any help would be appreciated. I started session 4 today...although I didn't really wan...

I sure can. I am a visual artist, and a teacher. I also grinned really big when I heard the personality traits....sooooo me! It is hard I think, b/c we have always been taught to look deeper. That a rose is not just a rose...a gesture or movement is not just a movement...dig deeper for the meaning a...

Wiksers- what a nice post. I can kinda relate to pujols. However I can't say that I have the great feeling of having anyone want to spend their life with me. Hence it being hard where I'm at in the program (a newbie) to fight the blues (dk. blue...matbe prussian blue :)) I have dealt with these feel...
