Stress Center Peer Support

I've decided to start my 10 year old daughter on the program. I've been hovering at lesson 3 for more than a month, but feel a strong need to share it with her. Last year, she started having many panic attacks because of friendship issues and my husband being in Iraq. We have found that she talks we...

Hi All- I tried to post a response yesterday, but somehow ended up getting erased before posting :? So...I wanted to say that I can relate in a lot of ways to what you all are saying. I grew up with a single mom on welfare with 5 brothers and sisters. Then we were moved to my dad and step-moms where...

Hi WW- I appreciate the post and info. I have been having a difficult time with spirituality lately, but know the quote well. This is just a little thought: God will help you, regardless. He's there always, whether we see or feel him or not. I believe He helped me find the program and figure out a w...

Hi All- I haven't been on in awhile because I haven't found the motivational shove to do so. With Halloween, Elections and my husband's tests for back surgery, it has been more overwhelming than I think it should (I know, bad word). Anyway- I have so much on my mind and am finding myself going back ...

I don't know about you, but I can't stand to be put on hold. This is one way to help it feel better...

Hi All- I too am super jealous. I'm jealous of my husband's past and our possible future of not being married but staying friends (something we've been talking about pretty seriously lately). I can't help it, but didn't realize it was part of my anxiety - wow! One of the things that actually opened ...

Hi All- I was obsessing for awhile about how infrequent I've been on the support group and how guilty I felt for not checking in. Part of that is due to the fact that I've been telling myself that I'm "stuck" on Session 3 (and have been for almost a month). Let me explain- I've been procrastinating ...

WOW- I had to laugh at these and read them to my family who is getting to know me as I get better. I do all of those things and always justify my reasons for them. It had to make me think about how many issues I've had and how much change is needed. I check for bathrooms all the time. I also get mad...

Hi MattM27- I know what you're going through. I'm going through one now and the biggest issue with me, when it is happening is I can't remember how to finish sentences. I sound unintelligent and like an airhead. It drives me nuts because I usually am so much more (can't think of the word - see what ...

Hi All- I'm sure some of you either watch on tv, listen on XM, or read online/email/magazine - Oprah. I've always admired her and, at times when my life is less chaotic, will subscribe to her e-newsletters (the one in particular is her "Spirit" newsletter). Anyway - I just checked my email and there...
