The Power of Symptoms
In our area, depression, bipolar disorder and anxiety disorders can cause severe symptoms.
Depressive symptoms include fatigue, feelings of worthlessness and hopelessness, and thoughts about self-harm.
Bipolar disorder? In addition to depressive symptoms, maybe it’s racing thoughts, no need for sleep, pressured speech, and flirting-with-disaster behavior.
Anxiety? Anxiety?
OCD? OCD?
Open the door for relief and healing
Who would want any of these symptoms? We’re lucky, so let’s use them to our advantage.
You may not believe it, but every symptom you experience can be the key to healing and relief. It will remain closed and locked, however, if you don’t track and observe them.
How else can we learn about ourselves or receive help?
