Anxiety is an obsession about what could happen

in the present and future.



Depression is a fixation on the negative experiences

in the past and present.


Many disciplines label these emotional experiences disorders.
 

I prefer to think of the individual symptoms we experience as

indicator lights that something in our life is not working for us, or

we are stuck reliving a trauma or series of trauma in the past.



The trick is to figure out what and why ... and with a variance on the

serenity prayer, a constant in the recovery community:


"We  Can Accept the Things We Cannot Change,

and We Can Change the Things We Can,

Once We Have the Wisdom to Know the Difference"


While medication may sometimes be the crutch that we need to get us back in stride, it is by

addressing our belief systems, our life influences and situations, and our departure from

our authentic selves that we can relive these symptoms and live a life of peace and joy. 

 
You can move beyond your symptoms...you have the power within. 

I can help you find the key to unlock it.
