I have learned that I really need to focus on the positives. But also not to beat myself up so much. I need to celebrate my successes, face my fears and just do the best I can. Also, that is ok to take a break and find your safe spot.

Slowly working through treatment plan settings. learning how to decide who I share/disclose information to; seems not everyone is able to process information supportively. learning that anger/irritability is a response to anxiety.

Hi  Just joined in efforts to manage some new experiences of depression linked to relationships. Highly motivated at work and in sports, really struggle with emotions and reactions in relation to marriage. Two kids with severe mental illness and addiction who are recovered and on their way. Now it seems to be my turn. Recent diagnosis and surgery for cancer (2 years ago) so am on the surveillance plan for that, a little stressful! Looking forward to learning lots.

Hi All,

I am 30 years old. I have been dealing with anxiety and depression for about 12 years now. Mainly, started when I moved from home and went away to school. I have just started the 16 week program and want to put myself fully into this as I really have heard great things about CBT and well I am willing to try anything as I don't want to fear life as I do often but enjoy life.

I must admit that I often feel guilt as I have such a good life and wonderful people around me. I really want to stop avoiding them. I am doing everything I can I feel like. Therapy, Meditation, Medication and I am hoping this course will help as well. 

Thanks

M
