Stress Center Peer Support

I am so happy to say I am doing fantastic! I have had some of the best days of my life these last two days! I am really enjoying the simple things in life. I used to really enjoy cooking but really because of self esteem issues lost my desire. Last night, a week night, I got home and said I am going...

OK, so I know exactly how you feel, because I have been waking up at 4am with severe anxiety except. I am living very closely to this program.
