Stress Center Peer Support

I finshed the program 3 1/2 years ago and have been doing just great. But now I have been having a major health problem and it has caused me to become very anxious and depressed. My doctors have not yet been able to diagnose my health problem. It is understandably very scary. I'm just wondering if anyone has experienced a growth spurt due to an illness and what they did to help themselves get through it?

Yes, I was ill recently with the flu, went back to work too early because I THOUGHT I felt better, and really can't recognize the signals of when I'm overdoing it because I'm such a multitasker and overachiever!!
To overcome this I will journal when I first starting feeling overwhelmed each day and the steps necessary to take action LITTLE by LITTLE!
