hi I'm in my 2nd week of program, optimistic about it but also unsure if this is right for me. I also have a short temper and shorter patience. I always get some sort of uneasy feeling that makes me tense and makes my heart race. I understand my problems, I had an unorthodox childhood, I always remember feeling anxiety my entire life but always seem to let my emotions get the best of me. I tried medication, i have seen numerous counselors and therapists with no success. I need to take the reigns here and get this under control. I'm a nice person who loves life and all i want to do is enjoy it and let all "the little things" that usually "get under my skin" go. any suggestions or helpful advice????????? Can anyone relate?

BSVP8.....Yes, its normal. Many have felt uneasy about starting the program. I personally dont let it rush me or let it get me anxious. I do it as I feel fit. I relax and just focus on the tapes. Lucinda is very good. She hits the nail on the head alot. You are not alone and dont give up PLEASE!!! We are all here to help each other. Take your time.
I myself lose my patience with things...but I STOP, pause and reflect.... and then just wait the situation out. It calms me right down. Hope this helps. And welcome to the site!!! creamcheese
