Re: Hello Everyone
Welcome to you both.
It's not the most active forum, but it is the most kind and compassionate spot I've ever found on the interwebs.
If I'm any indication, participating here is both helpful and intense. Not to speak for others but it seems to me since we're all here because we're suffering, sometimes posting is too much on top of daily life and working on our personal stuff.

Re: Hello Everyone
Welcome pheonixlane,
Happy you are here with us and a part of the forum. Congrats on your recent change to a healthier lifestyle and getting help in therapy. Because I just finished my degree for family counseling, I am really happy to hear that you are shopping around for a therapist that matches you. Too many times, I've seen people get discouraged with therapy and stop seeking help. Keep us posted if you find someone you really fit with. I too struggle with depression and anxiety, so you are definitely not alone.
