Stress Center Peer Support

I used to do that all the time. I even had a name for it. My husband and I always have to remind ourselves to live the now and not extrapolate and try to everything for the week in the next 10 minutes. Maybe you can make up a weekly schedule and put very specific tasks on certain days so that you ca...

I am interested in your posting, because I had an experience recently with my dad that reminded me of your situation. Mine is not so all encompassing, but still. The "my way or the highway" and temper tantrums or silent treatment and thinking he can run me over when I am an adult and give him no rea...

This is all 100% correct. How are you today?

I wish you luck for sure. You sure have a lot of changes happening in your life. As I read your post, a couple of things struck me. First, you aren't alone in the town, because your dad is there. And second, I totally relate to not wanting to pack, etc. When I get stressed, I procrastinate. And deep...

Hi, I am a SAHM with 4 boys, all born within 5 years and 1 week. My husband doesn't coach, but he does have a job that keeps him there about 10-12 hrs. a day and sometimes travel.

What I am saying is..... many of the things you are tal...

Oh yea, you'll get better. You'll learn that what you are fearing is the squirt of adrenaline and then surge of feelings that follow. Then you'll learn how you can de-stress your life by changing your diet, your self talk, your exercise or lack of it, learning to stand up for yourself and learning h...

Hi Nick- You sound like a very mature young man who is having a hard time. As I read your post, it reminded me of myself a bit. I also had a hard time separating from my folks who I thought of as my safe people, except that I was not honest with them about how I felt. I kept it inside. I'm glad for ...

Yahoo!!!! I'm about 98% positive that I am the person who posted about Dr. Leibgold's book on here, because it worked for me too!! And I heard about it from a lady who used to post on here too. Her name is Boon, on this site. She lives in CA, and gets to go to support groups run by Dr. Leibgold and ...
