I wanted to share this Web site on resilience with you. Here you can create a resilience profile for yourself by answering 13 questions. Then, compare each "range of strengths" to your responses listed in your assessment.

Maybe this assessment will help you, as it did me. I hope to learn more effective coping techniques. If you desire to learn more, click the following link:

http://www.ncvc.org/resilience/resilience.asp

What is resilience?

</font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>
Resilience is the power to cope with adversity and adapt to challenges or change. It is a process of drawing on beliefs, behaviors, skills, and attitudes to move beyond stress, trauma, or tragedy. Although naturally stronger in some personalities, it can also be learned. Resilient people have a range of strengths such as optimism, self-knowledge, personal meaning , and the ability to foster relationships and care for themselves and others. By mobilizing these powers, they confront life's obstacles and emerge with greater wisdom, flexibility, and strength.

Thanks jennie for this website - really enlightening to a point (and not necessarily in a good way, but oh well)
