  EmpowHer.com - Site Activity Feed — Authority: 543
  At our annual Thanksgiving meal, my nephew’s wife (my “niece-in-law??”) asked me to take some portraits of their family to use on their Christmas card. I was honored, so she and her husband (my nephew) and their 2-year-old son all gathered on the deck and we took about 50 shots in various poses with various ...

• Thank You

  
  Vicarious Therapy — Authority: 415
  Despite not sleeping and still being almost unbearably depressed I woke this morning with a clearer head. The comments people made on my last post both reinforced my clearer thinking and gave me some new ideas about how to help myself. Thank you so much for being so caring and supportive. It really helps me feel less ...

  Sickle Cell Can Kiss My A**!!! — Authority: 108
  One of the users of the Sickle Cell forum posted this awesome testimonial about her sickle cell epiphany that Im allowed to share with everyone. Since my epiphany occurred when I met another sickle cell warrior who was not ashamed about her disease, its so heartening when other people get the same attitude. Without ...

• Nicessism: Narcissism with a "not nice" defense.

  
  Ambigamy — Authority: 114
  Ive done a little online dating lately and its notable how many women (and perhaps men--I dont know) list "niceness" as a priority.  They want a nice guy.  Well, I certainly understand.  I want a nice gal too. But experience has shown me that we cant simply pop this positive sounding word at the top of our wish ...

• Pain management in groups using a CBT approach – Why do it?

  
  HealthSkills Weblog — Authority: 127
  This week I’m looking a working effectively with groups for pain management using a CBT approach.  Someone said recently ‘why should six clinicians be tied up for three weeks with only six patients? there are other people who need pain management too’ - and over the past ten years I’ve seen numerous ...

• Sickle Cell & Pity

  
  Sickle Cell Can Kiss My A**!!! — Authority: 108
  Here is a great question at the Sickle Cell Ning Forum . Why is that when you go into a crisis people tend to give you weird looks and have pity for you? We dont need pity but support... I think people offer pity what they do not understand something. Like when a loved one dies, friends go to the family to ...

  Gudrun Frerichs, PhD — Authority: 105
  When it comes to dealing effectively with conflict situations, knowing about your own conflict style will come as a great help. Everybody reacts differently to conflict. Basically, how we react to conflict, what triggers conflict, and what constitutes vulnerable areas...

• Stress: The final frontier (executive functions)

  
  HealthSkills Weblog — Authority: 127
  It’s visceral. Stress – hits you in the guts. Some of us cope well, some of us don’t – some of our stress lingers, sometimes it’s just the little things, those ‘daily hassles’ that end up tripping the switch. And I don’t think anyone would disagree that chronic pain is an enormous stressor. ...

• Mailbag: An Anxious Cry For Help

  
  A Splintered Mind by Douglas Cootey — Authority: 417
  Despite what others may think of me in my local community and family, I am not the mess I used to be. I have come a long way. I have still a long way to go, but I am happier and better and more productive today—more so now than in any time in my life. I take no medications, and in truth shun them. They made my life ...

• Going with the flow: emotion regulation and coping

  
  HealthSkills Weblog — Authority: 127
  I’m in two minds about attempting to regulate emotions. From ACT, and in particular, mindfulness, I’m learning that trying to control emotions and thoughts is darned near impossible – and unhelpful. From the research on the effect of pain on emotions and subsequently on self regulation, goals and coping, it ...

• Chronic pain management is NOT just like ‘any other chronic disease’

  
  HealthSkills Weblog — Authority: 127
  The other day someone said to me that managing chronic pain was just the same as managing something like diabetes, hypertension, asthma or any other chronic disease.  It irked me at the time and I couldn’t put my finger on just what it was that bothered me, but after a couple of days thinking about it I’ve got a ...

• ‘What do I do when I’ve had enough’: The Effect of Emotions on Self-regulation & Chronic Pain

  
  HealthSkills Weblog — Authority: 127
  As soon as read the first paragraph of the paper I’ve used as the basis for this post, I knew I was onto something that resonated with my original occupational therapy values. It says this: ‘ Living with chronic pain is a balancing act. People with chronic pain are required to make daily decisions about how ...

• Self regulation – what it is and what to do

  
  HealthSkills Weblog — Authority: 127
  So, if self regulation is about exerting control over thoughts, feelings, actions and physiology, how does it work? When I skipped through some Google references last night (o font of all knowledge!) I found a good number of sites referring to self regulation and children – but not nearly as many relating to adults, ...

• I’m so tired of coping: Self regulation, executive functions and chronic pain

  
  HealthSkills Weblog — Authority: 127
  Changes take energy – that’s nothing new, I know, but perhaps something as clinicians we might forget when we work with people who have chronic pain. I was thinking about this as I’ve had a week away from regular blogging so I could focus on writing and some self care.  Things are busy and as we enter the run ...

• Some Days are Easier Than Others

  
  A Splintered Mind by Douglas Cootey — Authority: 417
  Hard day today. I had plans. Big, beautiful plans. Instead I spent the day ticking. Then company arrived and there went my plans like leaves in the wind. I managed to check off two of the six things I needed to do today, but there was so much more that needed to be done. I was powerless and sat there stuttering, and ...
