Episode 38: Asking Mom for Help, Therapist Abandoned Me, Chronic Pain

Great variety of questions this week. I start the episode off by sharing some of my personal strategies for coping with stress and anxiety. Then it's straight into the questions. In one of the questions, I mention an earlier episode focusing on internet therapy, so here's the link for that: http://duffthepsych.com/episode10. Here are the questions I take: How can I tell me Mom that I need help without her being disappointed in me? What should I do now that my therapist abandoned me? How do I get back to my old self when chronic illness has me depressed? Please send me more questions! You can reach me via email at [email protected] or on twitter at http://twitter.com/duffthepsych
