stress management group therapy

Should I work in an anger management support group along with my BPD support group or would that only be harming my recovery due to being overwhelmed?

What is the preferred therapy? What are the chances of irradicating the virus? What are the side effects? How serious are they? Under what conditions is it possible to refrain from the treatment?

thanks I have spoken with the pain doctor they state I'm on good medications but how are they going tell me when I hurt the way I do should I find another pain doctor?

Recreation Depts, the Y, hospitals, health depts, and churches sponsor group therapy session. They can be very effective, but your situation may be too specific to be applied to the group format. Your current prof can guide you in that. Your local cable or other tv or radio stations and newspaper are good sources of info re such groups, as are the sources I previously mentioned.

So she said i have IC and there is no known cure....

The last paragraph of the USA Today article says the same. A group of people were taking stress management and then stopped. When they stopped their # of lesions increased. And yet in the beginning of the article there's this: ""In the past it has been felt, mostly without evidence, that stress can worsen MS, meaning life stresses can bring on attacks," says Ransohoff. "This doesn't seem to be the case.

It is indeed a complex process and several disease states from seborrheic dermatitis, cardiovascular disease, stroke to certain cases of cancers arise secondary to stress.

If tension or stress is involved, stress management and relaxation techniques may be done. Do activities that you enjoy, alone or with your friends.

Take care and warm regards.

Welcome back...I see you have been a member of MH for quite awhile...and it seems you know how to utilize all the forums. That's a GOOD thing...you should get some good feedback that way. As a chronic pain person myself, I can only tell you that getting off opiates and staying off them was the only way I could truly learn what my true pain levels were. Then, thru a lot of research and being open to suggestions, I am finding other ways to deal with my pain.

Hello ladies! I highly suggest physical therapy for joint pain! I'm don't agree with the group sessions tho! You can always try and if ita not for you then seek another therapist and/or clinic. You need 1 on 1 with a therapist that is skilled in manual therapy, muscle energy, and strain counterstrain! I am a physical therapist and treat many pregnant women with much success! Now with that said some pains will not be fully releived until baby is delivered!

Well I went to group therapy and decided to "share". I told them from the beginning what I was dealing with and how the whole story went and I was asked all the same questions that I am asked over and over...i.e. why don't you get a new gp, why don't you get another dr. to refer you to a neurologist, why don' tyou just walk in to the neuro's office and ask straight out what the problem is...and on and on...

Do you attend a group therapy ? At first I didn't. Surprising my Psychiatrist came with me to my first meeting. He admitted to also have been fighting depression for over 20 years. The group we attended was thru DBSA & is open to Bipolar, PStd,GAD,ect. The map on their website looks like they have a SUPport group in every major city in the USA. Our support group in California is great. Some members find it as necessary as their Psychiatrist & it's free!

Pain management focuses on "management" of pain rather than "cure" of pain. That's a very important distinction that usually gets lost when a patient is first referred to a pain practice. I can pretty much guarantee that every last person on this forum who sees a pain management physician still deals with pain every day. The goal is to reduce pain to a manageable level so the patient can regain some functionality and rejoin the land of the living.
