Hi Barb, it means Employee Assistance Program.

The issues for which EAPs provide support vary, but examples include

* substance abuse
* safe working environment
* emotional distress
* major life events, including births, accidents and deaths
* health care concerns
* financial or legal concerns
* family/personal relationship issues
* work relationship issues
* concerns about aging parents

I can identify... I hope you find some relief and are able to change so that you no longer make the same mistakes... Best of luck...

writing in a journal really helps me, I get my issues out and can see them, start to make connections and see my own patterns, then I can make choices,. once I have some idea where the issues are
