Re: Not getting a hold on my anxiety

I have decided that this program just isn't going to help me. I see my anxiety getting worse. I have no support network and a serious family issue that may or may not be playing a role in my lack of progress. I never feel like myself and I never feel well. I have isolated myself even from family. T...

Re: Not getting a hold on my anxiety

Since my last post, I have decided to try something new. I written down all of the info. on the carry along cards on my phone as notes. I also put week three on it with my music. When I start getting negative or something, I listen to it while I work. I think I know what triggers my anxiety. I know ...

Not getting a hold on my anxiety

I got the program about a year ago and since I have not been able to get a hold on my anxiety. After I went through it once, I decided elements needed to be re-visited. Mainly the lessons about negative thinking and self talk. I just am not getting a grip on my anxiety. It seems many times to come f...

Worries about Psyche evaluation major setbacks

I have experienced major setbacks with my anxiety and depression. Haven't done anything with the program in at least four weeks. I went through a psychiatric evaluation and experienced a panic attack. A BIG ONE! I worry mostly about the results. I may or may not have Asperger's syndrome. Chances are...

What If I am dealing with someone who doesn't listen

If anyone reads this, I need an answer. How do I gain respect from someone whose always criticizing me? I live with my father and my relationship with him is toxic. Part of the problem I have with him is he doesn't listen to me regardless of how I assert myself. It has become a situation where I don...

Going through a rough time

Until now, I have been doing great with my anxiety and depression. Now, something new has come up and I don't know if I should continue with the program. All of my life I have known that when I was born, I had a brain disorder. Only no one knew what it was. The mystery may have been solved. It looks...

Never Looked at Assertiveness Before

I have never looked at assertiveness before. I have learned about it before but not having anything to do with anxiety and depression. One of the exercises asks me to look at situations where more assertiveness is needed. Only one came to mind. My toxic relationship with my father. I think my relati...
