  1. If stress, anxiety or depression are spoiling your life then I know how
    you feel. It's like being trapped in a choking fog, feeling like you're
    disconnected from reality and you just can't see a way out of the fog.
    You feel lost, helpless, absolutely exhausted and my goodness me, it
    feels like you've been hit by a 10 tonne juggernaut. It's exactly how I
    felt for 5 unhappy years.
    It is absolutely harrowing and the longer you suffer like this, the
    harder and harder it gets to see light at the end of the tunnel. It
    becomes so hard to function even the most basic tasks are just too much
    effort and as for getting restful, rejuvenating sleep - forget it. And
    it doesn't matter how much you sleep, the exhaustion just won't go
    away.
    You'll hear many times that single events can trigger a major episode
    of stress, depression and anxiety. The key word is "trigger", because
    that is all a single event is. It doesn't actually CAUSE stress,
    depression or anxiety but it does trigger a sequence of behaviors that
    lead to mental trauma.
    Let's look at how this happens and then you'll find a key skill to show
    you how to deal with stress, anxiety and depression so events don't
    trigger them.
    Descent into a stressful, depressive or anxious episode happens because
    of negative and catastrophic reactions to events you are confronted
    with. One event by itself simply isn't enough. There are many
    chain-reactions that take place before a person becomes highly
    stressed or depressed or anxious, but I'm going to discuss one of the
    biggest ones: using one event to ascribe catastrophic meanings to all
    areas of your life - I call it "generalizing".

  5. I know a great stress relief and it doesn't cost anything:

    it's called peace of mind, the truth, and knowing what really matters
    in life

    I used to think meditation was lame, but I've started to realize the
    positives. It makes you feel more in control of yourself because you
    let go control of other things you can't;

    I can sit and just let go of many problems (I'm still working on some)
    because I know I'll be at peace after.

    So if anyone on these newsgroups tries to sell you something be it
    religion or their version of "the truth" for money or no money, save
    your time and effort.

    Oh, and a good mountain bike ride can banish alot of those problems
    anyways, I always come out feeling stronger at the end of the trail!
