Stress Center Peer Support

You may be putting too much stress on yourself trying to "get it all done". Take a deep breath and relax. Use some of the techniques it suggests that work for you. A couple of the things that work for me is "it will go away... it will go away" breathe, breathe - "it's only a panic attack - I will su...

I also got those feelings about the same time you guys did. (I'm in the 4th session but just a little further behind than scheduled but am using the tools everyday so I feel like I'm further ahead - hope you can make sense of that! :)) They do get less severe so take heart! it's all part of the heal...

Good for you Suzie! Keep up the good work at your own pace. I think that's what relieves a lot of stress just from this program is by doing it at the pace you are comfortable with. You are proof of this! (me too)

Susie, That's kind of how I feel also. It's so overwhelming it puts me into a panic. I've been going at my own pace also. I just don't have the time to listen to the relaxation tape 3 times a days, write down all the times I have a panic attack (I'd be writing constantly), keep a journal, etc., etc....

Plus CD2 gives some good examples from the group on what they felt. I'm new to this (just started Session/CD2) but my symptons st...

Tina, Thank you for that info - I had actually already read it and it's very inspiring and encouraging. I see you post often. Thank you for your support. Off the subject, if you don't mind, I wanted to respond to your message and the only way I found to do it was to hit the "Quote" key. Your message...

R, No problem answering your questions. Yes, I eat healthy. I am a larengectomy patient with cancer and get 90% of my nutrition through a feeding tube in my stomach (PEG tube). I'm sure you've heard of Ensure Plus. Anyway, that and other liquid supplements give me good nutrition - not very exciting ...

Hello all, I'm a new member and want this to work so badly. I've had panic attacks/depression about 80% to 90% of the day for the last 2 or 3 weeks. This program came in day before yesterday and I'm being faithful in doing what it says with the exception of journaling because with A & D 80 to 90% of...
