Beginning Program
I received my program yesterday but haven't listened to the CD's yet. I've been dealing with anxiety off and on since 1991, but had everything under control until 2 months ago when I felt overwhelmed with stressors due to work and started having panic and anxiety symptoms. I have faith in God and the program and hope to be able to post in the near future that I am symptom free. Any others just starting out that may need to be motivated and help motivate? Thanks so much.
Hi Chris- I am just starting the program as well. I've had the program for a few years, and made a half-hearted attempt once before, but now I am going to be more devoted. They hardest thing is accepting that the anxious thoughts will not go away over night. I can relate when you say that you are feeling overwhelmed with work. I am a student, and I find that a big contributor to anxiety can be work and the expectations you put on yourself.
I suggest you keep the cd in your car so everytime you get in it, the cd will start playing. Keep the workbook somewhere where you will see it all the time. Just know that you'll get through this. We're in this together!

Although I bought the program a long while back I am new to this as well. I just wanted to wish you much luck and blessings. I have not been so lucky in my quest to find peace of mind. I am now at the point where I have no choice anymore its eating me up financially. So godspeed and good hunting check in from time to time dont be stranger P.S it looks like we are welcomed here.
much love, blessings, and most of all peace

I am doing two new things at this very minute: First, I have never participated in a chat environment and Second, I am just beginning this program. My son, 26, recommended it to me. We have similar problems with anxiety and depression. I feel guilty sometimes that he has this problem, it is like I have given it to him. But we have had an overwhelmingly positive relationship and are going to tackle this together (although in separate States). I have been reading everyone's posts and I am so happy that I am not alone. It is so frustrating to tell someone how this depression is and to see that concerned but non-comprehending expression. I am looking forward to the next 3 or 4 months. Courage to us all!
My mother ordered the program for me months ago but I refused to believe that it could help me until recently. I set my mind on beginning today and I did! I'm praying that it helps me because anxiety is ruining my life! I miss my carefree days when I was "fearless"!!! I often cry out to God for help and I feel that He directed me to open up the box and try this program!
