I want to be happy in my life

I just want to be happy Have you noticed that some people seem to have everything, but they’re still not happy? And yet you meet other people who have very little, but their lives seem full of love and laughter – and they sure seem to be happy! Why is that?What is happiness anyway?

I'm fed up with being stressed

Stress symptoms checklist Do you know when you feel stressed? Can you identify whereabouts in your body you feel your stress? Some people feel it in their chest first, or their neck and shoulders. Others get tightness in their head, which fast becomes a headache. Or another person may feel their heart start to palpitate resulting in a “buzzy” type of feeling.

adult add

Adult Attention Deficit Disorder (Adult ADD) is not a condition – It’s who you are! It was once thought that children with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) grew out of it by adulthood, but research indicates this is not always the case. Some children with ADD will grow into adults with ADD, but with greater life experience and development of skills, adults often learn to mask ADD and manage in spite of it.Since this neuro-biological state did not have a name until about 20 years ago, any person older than 20 will not have been detected as having ADD, either by parents or teachers, nor received the special support or understanding that can make life a little … [Read more...]
