On a separate thread, in the therapy forum I discuss my own plans about hypnosis that I get from a student at a program at this massage school, plus student massages every week. They also do reiki and acupressure.

I am also trying out many cd's and programs that deal with anxiety and depression and other emotional problems. Wendy Friesen is wonderful (hypnotherapist who makes her own cd's---wonderful!)

I am tentatively getting involved at my local NAMI National Alliance for Mental Illness, which has support groups for us and family members and also this "Peer to Peer" thing that I may try.

When there is a will there is a way.

I do self-hypnosis every day, relaxation. I read books about psychology and recovery. They are not expensive.

May check out that link you gave us about that alternative to psychotherapy, too.

thanks,

Billi
