Stress Center Peer Support

I never seem to be able to get past session 3 before I drift off, I start of with good intentions but gradually it wains, I think alot has to do with that relaxation CD, rather than relax me it annoys me, I know it word for word, I have no problems relaxing anyway, I fall of to sleep at night withou...

I'm so negative it scares me, I've never met anyone more negative than myself, there are 2 sides to ever situation IE glass half full half empty type of thing, well sometimes I can't even see the positive yet it's so blatantly obvious to everyone else, and being so negative actually brings nothing b...

Totally amazing how quick your mood can change. It's a public holiday here in the UK today. Got up sun was shunning, it was a beautiful day, I said I'll go for a run. So got ready, just as I was about to go out the door my daughter woke up, my wife was grumpy so took her down stairs and never got fo...

I'm on session 2, things where going good until I got the cold, now I feel like I've taken a step backwards, I feel really low.

There is no joy in my life anymore, I have no interest in anything, ...

My work is the main cause of my depression in so many way, but with the job market like it is, its almost impossible to find another job so I have to make do, I have a family to support. I'm just so passive at work, people just walk over the top of me, whether it be doing other peoples work or jobs ...

This is something I hate, If I am anxious about something I will blush bright red, this then makes me more anxious as people will notice and so the cycle continues.

I'm at session 2 and having a real issue with one of my triggers, that being my work colleagues. Session 2 tells us to accept, move on etc but its damn hard, these people really get me into a negative train of thought day in day out by how horrible they are, back stabbing, bitching, butt kissing etc...

I'm in week 2, The first week didn't teach me anything I didnt already know, Week 2 about panic attacks, well its not really something I have an issue with but have participated and did the relaxation CD daily but dont feel any better to be honest
