Interests
Mother Nature captivates me - my pictures are mostly of National Parks, etc. that I have visited. Love being involved with church and life groups. Spending time with family and friends. Love outdoors, camping, motorcycling, hiking, playing with the kids. Poetry (reading & writing), books, (reading & writing), music (listening & singing in church!), watching NFL (go Broncos), and NCAA (go Badgers).

Treatments
- Effexor Somewhat Helpful
- not sure we have the levels right yet
- Meditation Too Soon to Tell
- Just started - saying my prayers

- It works when you can remind yourself to do it, but "stinkin thinkin" is a very hard habit to break!

- didn't work
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- works as long as you are involved, but once it ends and your on your own!?!?

Treatments
