About Me
Using positive thinking and other skills to deal with anxiety and depression. I'm married, have 2 grown sons, 1 grandson, 2 dogs and 2 cats. I was a teacher in NY and NJ and loved it. May try to get back into it once I'm settled here in NC.

I'm trying to make an appointment with the therapist. I keep missing her. When I went to see her before, all I did was complain about my husband. Now, I'm ready to start tackling some of my issues. I guess I'm making some progress.

Support Groups
Close Anxiety
formerly laniescherr. just moved from nj to nc leaving all my friends and family. miss my ds friends for support.
Treatments
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
- Definitely works.
- Klonopin Working / Worked
- Works with no side effects. 0.5mg once in morning.
Close Physical & Emotional Abuse
Married for 6 years to a drinker, who is very hard to live with, mood swings, cursing, anger outbursts, critical, you name it. I have been married only 6 years, living with him 12 years, but know him since childhood. I feel trapped and don't know how to get out. I don't know if I can get out. I need support from others in my situation. BTW, he is NOT physical with me.
Treatments
- Talking Not Working
- He can be charming but is not a communicator. It goes in one ear and out the other. He may be good for a day or two if he feels threatened that I'll leave, but soon he's back to himself. He will not go to counseling and feels we can work it out ourselves.
Open Phobia
Fear of driving highways and especially bridges. I've conquered agoraphobia, but can't seem to get passed this driving thing. I'm ok driving locally and also with anyone else driving over a bridge, but can't seem to get the guts to get out there and do it. It's so frustrating and I hate being dependent on others.
Treatments
- Acceptance Working / Worked
- Acceptance has worked with all my other agoraphobic fears, not driving bridges.
