My photo is on my phone. I have no web address for it...

Yes! Great idea for a thread! Walking, hiking, running does wonders to turn a mood around and make the day so much better! I had a 7 mile hike with a friend yesterday that I almost bailed on - so glad I didn't!

This is embarrassing... but sometimes I start rocking. I never let anyone see me do it. Sometimes even at work when there's deadlines and lots of pressure. Sometimes my thoughts will create the stress. Sometimes at night in bed. Like I said, I never ever do it in front of anyone else, and kind...

Hey Dexter, I feel for ya . Actually feeling a few of those same thoughts right now... and have felt all of those ways before - it sucks... I know. But really, how we feel is not anyone else's responsibility is it... lots of life lines around - lots of ideas and suggestions to help you feel...

Hey Frenzy, See if you can read this link... So it wouldn't let me post the link. But you can find it by searching psychology today evolution-the-self and can-your-therapist-be-your-friend by Leon F Seltzer Ph.D.

You are not alone! I can't handle them either. My doctor had to refer me to a psychiatrist. Over 4+ years time I tried just about every anti-depressant and anti-psychotic. I was told I didn't really fit the bipolar diagnosis but to have the drugs covered by insurance they would put that down -...

❤️ I'm sorry. Many people can't understand the horrors of this world and its consequences if it doesn't hit them personally. You handled it well!

This absolutely does help! This is a good goal! Something for me to work to figure out. Currently I get up at 4:30 AM to exercise and then I usually exercise again after work. When I ran the 5K, it wasn't long enough and I wanted to run it again... I am not a strong fast runner- hills kill me-...

I know the memories will never go away... but it gets so tiring sometimes. :/ I try try try to stay busy! I try to do things that are good for me even if I'm afraid. For example in March I spent two weekends hiking... one 6 mile hike and one 13 mile hike. I also drove out of town to visit...

I absolutely agree! Was pointing out DDQ's selective method unacceptable? Or perhaps my irritation and defensiveness with DDQ came across too strongly? I guess knowing my own history and how mean and spiteful I'm able to get, I thought I handled it rather well. But upon rereading it, I can see...

Oh my goodness. You certainly feel you understand the whole picture - diagnosis- etc. - very quickly with very little communication. Thank God you're not a therapist - you would pigeon hole every client regardless according to you. You just take one sentence you want to pick apart and criticize...

I really like this idea too! Especially sharing some resources for her to learn more... Thank you!

Perfect!

Hmmm, well that's your opinion and I disagree, All you did was prove to me that you are viewing me and my situation- which you know nothing about - from your own narrow point of view, you are judging me and my therapist by your personal interpretation of my few sentences- which you know nothing...
