Stress Center Peer Support

Lynda Lu and Janet I can so relate. Paislee as always it is great to hear your support and thoughts. I too have had trouble with my business and looking for a job. Its been six months. I am so surprised anyone gets a job these days, but I want to encourage you both to keep going. And to keep us upda...

Quyn2thee - I must be kin to you. I am a god deal older and I seem to have a relapse every few years. This time I am stuck. I bought the program a few years ago when I hit what I thought was bottom, and got through the first four weeks, but then came out of my troubles enough that I did not finish t...

NeverQuit - I can not offer much about your situation but I can relate. I have recently had to let a good friend go because her self esteem was so low she had to see more than one person at a time.

I used to be so outgoing and right now the last couple months of shutting myself in has caused me to not want to get out of bed. And then sometimes when I do get out of bed I end up on the couch all ...

I think this should be a topic at the top of the blogs. Self Motivation has got to be the toughest part of starting the program, any program and sticking with it. I have experienced general anxiety disorder for years, with very acute anxiety occurring every four or five years. This year, currently I...
