Re: recycling

If it's ringing in your ears, then perhaps that's a physical (hearing) problem. Have you had that checked out?

Re: recycling

It will take some time to break your habits of depression and anxiety. I wonder, could you be more specific about what you are feeling right now?

Re: I want to die

We'll keep rooting for you, Ab. Keep us posted on how you're doing. I think Cheryl has some great ideas. No fun to go through this alone! Take care. :)

Re: I want to die

I agree with Bklynbee. Your daughters need you and will always wonder "why", If you go through with this. I am not a professional counselor, but have a wife who has, in the past, had suicidal thoughts. Her parents and brothers knew that she was planning to die, but would have been devastated if this...

Blaming Myself Again. It's my fault, think I'm not capable.

Hi. I don't know if everyone remembers me, but I've been with this program since last July. I'm progressing fairly well, but am often critical of myself. Today I went and sold candy bars with my son. We sold for about an hour. Sales weren't record, but we sold 32 bars. I would have been fine with th...

Re: Help! Hypochondria out of control!

Hi there, KKross! No experience quite like yours, but I will tell you, I don't like getting hit in the head, even when people are joking with me. I'm sort of unusual this way. Wow, 2 times in the gym. I think I'd be a little apprehensive about that myself. Do you think you should actually go in and ...

Re: Feeling better with session 3

It sounds like you made a good decision here. Keep talking to yourself in a positive manner. Easier said, then done, I know! I'll be thinking of / praying for you in these matters. :D Have a great day / week!

Re: Feeling better with session 3

Hi Hopeful. Yes, you will want to go back to session 3 often. I think session 3 is the key to everything that Lucinda talks about! As far as quitting your job as a school teacher, there's no right or wrong decision here. I will, however, tell you that I quit a job a few years ago, and sometimes wond...

Re: Fear because of freak things that happen.

Hi there! It's ok to have apprehensive thoughts. Sometimes if you don't think about what could have happend we do end up injuring ourselves or others. Just be thankful your parking job ended well and don't dwell on it. That's one thing I've been working on and it's HARD. I had someone the other day...

Fear because of freak things that happen.

Okay, I'm a guy. But in my case, it's been awhile since I've driven a stick-shift car. Well, I was helping a guy get unstuck from the ice, and he asked me to drive the car. I had a better skill of getting the car unstuck than he did, but GUESS WHAT? He was probably wondering why I kept revving the e...
