Mary's advice is textbook good stuff, so cannot offer better than that. Most of us have this same problem. Doesn't matter if people need us as much as we need them because guess what, those roles are always changing and reversing. Look around with your observant eyes. Surely some of the people you w...

I have been working on erasing the negative thoughts, but I just can't seem to shake them. I try to be happy, think positively, but then I will fall back into the negative cycle, and everything i am trying to accomplish feels hopeless. I try to go for walks, play with my daughter, talk with my girlf...

Well...I am 25 and ready to start a family. I really want to try to get pregnant this fall. I'm a teacher and need to plan it with my school schedule. However, I'm on cymbalta.

I did get really anxious (very fast pulse) but I stayed and did great. And to think I had thought ab...

Does anyone else feel afraid to get physical activity? I know I need it, but the fear is still there. I don't like to get my heartrate up. Any suggestions?

I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions. I notice that when my anxiety is bothering me I eat way too much. I have this obsessive fear of my blood sugar dropping and passing out or something so I eat. I don't even have diabetes. My blood sugar has dropped before if I went to long without e...

I was just wondering if there were any teachers on here. I am a kindergarten teacher and thought it would be nice to have someone to talk to in the same situation.
