Stress Center Peer Support

Hi I see you originally logged on here in 2007. How many times have you completed the program? I started a little over a year ago and had gppd results which started to fade after I finished, so I have started again. I think session 3 is totally key. Something I started due to this program is my gym ...

Gigi, I think you are right. There are a lot of negative thoughts around stuff that I procrastinate. Christmas is distracting me from the stuff I want to do around my new hobby. I have a lot of thoughts of failure. I got some of the presents wrapped up that I have been procrastinating but just disso...

Hi Danny I have sometimes found the same problem with not believing my positive talk. Do you remember where Lucinda says you need to rephrase SO YOU CAN BELIEVE IT. for example: Negative thought: "She wont like me" Instead of changing it to "she will be crazy about me" (maybe hard to believe) you co...

Hi Coach Chris, Thanks for taking an interest in my progress. I have gone to the gym 7 times since that first day nov 27. I had an issues (in my head about the trainer not liking me) but am working on it. The trainer/owner is obviously a caring person. I am enjoying the treadmill and resistance trai...

Dear coach, I actually went to gym and signed up for 1 month till end of 2012. The trainer gave me a program and showed me the machines. I am going back tomorrow to consolidate what I learned today. I feel scared and excited. Thanks for the advice. I actually think I encouraged myself by writing it ...

Dear coach Chris, Thanks for the positive "what ifs". Need to do more of that. I actually did something today that I have been putting off for many months. We bought a 2 year Apple computer "phone support" almost 2 yrs ago and I havent used it as much as I had hoped. So night before last I wrote it ...

Hi folks, I have been reviewing chapter 12. Some of the things I have been putting off are easier to address and I have been able to actually do them. eg wash the kitchen floor. Invite old friends over (tonite), but some are very hard. During the course, I decided to go into a hobby I have been inte...

Dear mlws, I am not a therapist but I know you have done the right thing ... you have reached out. Keep reaching out. Is there someone you could phone to talk about your feelings? You know that life is worth living but you just dont feel it right now. Things WILL get better for you. Dont give up. Re...

Thanks for the helpful replies, coaches. These things I am procrastinating are things I WANT TO DO. I am newly (1 year) retired and there is very little I MUST to do. I am excercising 5 days per week and have eliminated coffee. I do relaxation most days. My diet could improve, although the sugar and...

Hello out there, I have completed the program about a month ago. I feel a lot better than I did when I started. Most of my gains around faulty thinking. My main problem right now is procrastination. I cant seen to get to tasks I know I need to do. Anyone got any helpful comments? It would be appreci...
