Title: New here. Hello :)
Post by: sashj on February 17, 2011, 06:06:00 PM
Hi. I'm new to the forums. I am battling depression for the second time in my life, but feel I've turned a corner recently and I'm looking to give and receive support to keep me going and also help others if I can. I am currently discovering the benefits of meditation and learning to relax for the first time in my life! It's great and something I never thought I'd be able to do! I'm a writer and do a lot of work around mental health issues and trying to get rid of the stigma attached to them, as I also have moderate OCD. I am working with a CBT therapist who has been really helpful, despite my messing up times for several appointments with her - I'm usually more organised! Thanks for reading. S XXX

Hi Sashj a warm  !"£ to the forum, its good to hear some positive things, have thought about writing a little about the fun experiences of my life.  How are you doing your meditation, find it even hard to do my breathing at he moment.  Take care
