What's up y'all, I've been feeling awful for a couple of days now. Yesterday was bad, but I got a break around night time and today I just feel exhausted and I haven't done anything, I started to cry when I was leaving my wife at work, I just feel defeated from kust feeling anxious and depressed. I'm probably going to try some coping skills, cause I've gotten away from themba bit. What do y'all recommend I try?

I recommend Mindfulness, go to the resource thread and there is a 3 minute mindfulness video there, or you can go to youtube and search mindfulness and you'll get tons of them. If you would like I can post you a couple of my favorites.

Thanks Lisa, if you could recommend some that would be cool. I use to watch them, but haven't in a while.

SB,

Here is a link to some good therapy downloads. So much of our anxiety starts right in our head...with our thinking!

Therapy Work Sheets:

Try 'catching' any repetetive negative thoughts. This can be tricky b/c they can be lightning fast. The meditation can help you to become aware of them!

Then counter the negative thoughts by working through them using the worksheets.

This along with some exercise to combat the fatigue...(you have to expend some energy to gain it!) should help.:)

Keep posting, and hoping you feel better soon!

S.C.

Thanks SC, your right about negative thoughts, they truly influence the way I feel and behave.
