I sometimes try guided imagery meditation. That does work for me sometimes as long as my pain number isnt too extreme. I was rather skeptical when the therapist suggested we try it but about in the middle I realized wow, this does seem to work.

Im not sure the library will work for me, I deal with social anxiety and would rather spend money over the internet for books as there are less people involved. Although it would probably be just as healthy for me to do that as it would checking out the books, facing fears and all that but.... yeah, scary.
