Stress Center Peer Support

I've read over and over in the Bible, God says, Jesus says, FEAR NOT !! I know it's hard not to let doubts and fears take over, but for me, when I'm feeling overwhelmed, I close my eyes and in my heart I say, "God, this is worrying me. But I'm giving it to you. I'm letting you take over. Because I k...

Hi everyone! :D I've been on 40 mg of citalopram (which is the highest they like to give) for about a year (before that I had been off of it for a year and before that had been on it about two years). I've moved down from 40 mg to 30 mg a day. At first I didn't notice a difference but about a month ...

Thank you! I am really proud of myself and excited for what my future holds. I tell almost everyone I meet about this program -- definitely anyone who mentions a problem with anxiety or depression.

Hi! I hope you are all having a wonderful summer. I wish there was a place on here for off-topic friendly conversation. But I will post this here.

Well, thankfull I'm done this program and doing wonderful! I feel like I'm so much...

:) Hi everyone! I hope you are all doing awesome on your personal journeys towards recovery. I've been out of the program for several weeks now and have never been better! I plan to run through it once more in a month or so when things settle down in my life. As of right now I'm reading From Panic t...

Hi everyone! Well, I'm all done the program! It took me longer than 15 weeks because I repeated some sessions and took some breaks, but I'm finally done the program! Many of you are familliar with my story, and I've repeated it many times so I'm not going to bother typing it all out again (if you wa...

What a wonderful way of looking at things Tina. You sound so mature and self-posessed. And I agree. So what we have to work on our skills? It only makes us stronger.

Hi everyone! I'm happy to report that I'm on Lesson 14 and almost done the program. I am feeling so good. I still get nervous and anxious sometimes, and I can still feel depressed, but it hasn't taken over my life anymore like it used to. I'll still catch myself using negative thinking patterns, so ...
