Trachemys That's neat I'm actually up in Kennesaw now my Mom lives in Norcross. Small world.
Thank you for the replies they're helping keep me out of a funk that I could easily fall into.
My plan that I was using was using this site primarily and journalling a lot each day about what I was feeling and thinking. Going back and looking at how hard day 1 was and day 2 etc, it was motivation to keep going. Also listing the things I'd lost helped, but like Scott says, I suppose there is always a lower bottom.
I don't so much have a formal plan. I did start medication to clear up some of the early anxiety and started a long term anxiety/anti depressant. I know a little about each program and tried to practice things I've heard along the way from AVRT, and AA, and Lifering. But in a way I guess that's just me doing it alone?
