A Young Man Needs Therapy For His Severe Depression, Relationship and Friendship Problems, and For His Drug Dependency and Alcoholism
by DIGauthor on Apr.20, 2010, under Dating
About a year ago I had dinner with a forty-two-year-old male named Alexander who experiences intense depression, has relationship difficulties, and who is dependent on alcohol and drugs. As stated by Alexander, it is his alcoholism and drug addiction and his acute depression that had the most to do with his recurring relationship and spirituality issues.
I recollect reading that a history of mental health problems, drug addiction, and abusive and hazardous drinking routinely occur in the same family. Furthermore, I have read that in such situations, an individual needs to get treatment for both medical situations and that addiction and mental health issues frequently take place in the same person.
As articulated by Alexander, he is so overwhelmed by his relationship problems and by both of his medical problems that he in essence has little or no aspiration to complete much of anything. What is especially sad about this is that earlier in his life, Alexander managed to complete three semesters of grad school in history.
Alexander’s condition makes me wonder if he is an illustration of an individual who can look in the mirror and perceive his drug abuse and alcohol drinking problems and do something constructive about these issues or if he is an individual who has to hit the very bottom before he gets addiction treatment that results in long lasting recovery.
The Need For a Rehab Protocol He Can Believe In and a Healthcare Professional He Can Trust
If it would be beneficial I would think that I could recommend quite a few websites that could possibly help him learn more about drug abuse symptoms, the stages of alcoholism, substance abuse information, and relationship difficulties. From where I stand, nevertheless, Alexander needs to locate a rehabilitation program he can believe in and follow through over the long term and locate a psychologist he can trust.
I could be in the wrong but it seems to make sense that Alexander probably needs to look honestly at his life regarding his drug addiction signs and alcoholic symptoms and recognize the fact that he cannot use drugs or drink at all if he wants to get sober, remain sober, and start on the road to long-lasting sobriety.
It may be asked how therapy would help his alcohol and drug addiction. For starters, there are a number of recently developed doctor-prescribed medications that can help Alexander avoid an alcohol or a drug relapse, help him through the drug and alcohol detoxification process, and help him through his withdrawal symptoms.
Second, Alexander would learn to admit the fact that there is entirely nothing constructive about drug abuse and careless and excessive drinking and that engaging in one or both circumstances is the route to financial difficulties, legal problems, deteriorating health, shattered relationships, a premature death, and poor work and school performance.
Third, therapy for his depression and for his relationship difficulties might help him manage these mental health issues more successfully and possibly create less of a need for him to engage in addictive behavior.
The Significance of Recovery Groups Such as Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous
There are possibly numerous friends, other individuals, and family members who would offer to help Alexander with his drug abuse and his careless and abusive drinking. He more likely than not would experience greater tolerance from a support group such as Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous, on the other hand, rather than getting advice from individuals who drink in moderation or who have never taken drugs.
When Individuals Do Things They Love and About Which They Are Dedicated
There’s a philosophical attitude that contends that individuals who do things they like and something about which they are passionate attain a great place in life. Stated more explicitly, when people do what they love, they rarely if ever experience boredom or an uneventful life. If they get involved in something that is gratifying, moreover, they become more complete and experience more contentment and delight in life and in their relationships.
When this is examined in more detail it becomes obvious that this affirmative attitude is diametrically opposed to a life that is grounded in drug and alcohol addiction because such a lifestyle removes the happiness and joy that life has to offer.
Due to the fact that Alexander doesn’t have the grit to carry out much of anything in his life, it is apparent that he desperately needs some hope for a more productive lifestyle. And the sad thing is that hope is almost everywhere around Alexander if he could only get to the point in life to get the therapy he requires for his intense depression and addiction and continue with his treatment routine.
Stronger Relationships, a Stronger Sense of Spirituality and Happiness, A Wonderful Life, Self Respect, and Positive Change Are Possibilities
Alexander is clearly too young to be beaten in life. He doesn’t realize this at this time in his life but if he can learn how to refrain from drugs and alcohol via alcohol and drug rehab and get the counseling he requires for his intense depression, he can turn his life around and start living with direction, passion, and with self-respect.
More meaningful relationships, a stronger sense of spirituality and happiness, positive change, self respect, and a meaningful life are certainly possibilities for Alexander if only he could get motivated to seek the professional rehabilitation he requires, follow through with his treatment protocol, live his life in an addiction-free and healthy way, and learn how to cultivate a more positive attitude about his life.
Dating After Divorce With Confidence
by DIGauthor on Apr.20, 2010, under Dating
The one thing that a divorce can do for your social life is completely shake your confidence. This can be especially true for women, as many women tend to spend more of their time looking after household responsibilities even in today’s liberated world. Learning to return to dating after a divorce with confidence starts with learning to trust your own judgment.
Getting back out there is going to involve different things for different women. Some will want to find out how to get rid of acne while other women will want to learn how to pep up their personal style. It’s perfectly acceptable to feel as though you aren’t quite in your element. Just learn as you go.
Buy yourself one or two things that will help you feel like a million bucks. If you’re interested in that beautiful pair of swarovski earrings then by all means, go for it. If you’re just looking for a new way to upgrade your style, then spend the money on a personal consultant.
Choose your wardrobe to find a blend of style and comfort. We all have moments where we are not sure if the brown boot or the black boot goes better with our look. We all have moments where we feel like we are simply fish out of water trying to jump back into the pond. Take a few deep breaths, relax, and try to focus on giving yourself that extra edge while feeling comfortable with your style.
Don’t forget that you’re not in this boat alone. Plenty of women have decided to get back out there and go for the social life that they deserve. It’s not always easy when you are suddenly a single parent and have a world of responsibilities on your hands. But it is definitely worth the effort.
Try to maintain your focus on the positive and avoid thinking of the reasons your ex gave you for the divorce. One man’s opinion is not necessarily fact. You have an opportunity to bring yourself back out into the world in a new way that will enable you to develop new friendships. The new relationships you are building today could lead to something very special tomorrow.
Make sure you don’t rush it. While there will be helpful family members and well meaning friends, this has to be your decision and your decision alone. Making this decision for yourself is one of the better ways to amp up your confidence and feel good about what you’re doing.
A Woman Gets a Divorce, Becomes Depressed, Engages in Excessive Drinking, and Finds Top Shelf Help at an Alcohol Rehabilitation Clinic
by DIGauthor on Mar.09, 2010, under Dating
Wendy was the mother of three children. Wendy had been feeling quite nervous lately and started to “medicate” herself by having three or four screwdrivers every night after she tucked her children into bed. After around six weeks of this drinking routine, she at long last realized that rather than helping her relax and cope with her issues, drinking made her feel less restful when she awakened. This, in turn, made her feel even more tense all through the day.
After thinking about her circumstance for a few weeks, Wendy decided to talk about her drinking situation with her best friend. In truth, just about ten minutes into their conversation, Wendy’s friend, Jocelyn, mentioned that she knew about an extremely highly qualified and helpful physician at the local drug and alcohol abuse treatment center. After talking to her friend, Wendy without much ado got motivated to call the rehab clinic and make an appointment.
Five days later she finally got to meet the psychiatrist her friend had been talking about. After their short introduction, Wendy explained to the physician that ever since she and her ex-husband got divorced, she has been having an extremely difficult time financially, spiritually, and emotionally.
At times, she felt that she was totally over the divorce. Recently, though, she has been feeling quite depressed about the fact that she and her former husband couldn’t “make it”. When asked by the doctor how long she and her ex-husband dated before they got married, Wendy told the psychiatrist that she and her ex-husband dated for five years and then lived together for a year before they got married.
As Wendy was talking to the doctor, she underlined the point that she honestly thought that they waited long enough to know one another well enough before they got married. After the children started to arrive, conversely, just about everything seemed to get worse. To make mattes even worse, both Robert and she began to drink, and their hazardous and abusive drinking negatively affected their finances, their relationship, and their love for one another.
When things became dysfunctional between them, Robert got a divorce attorney and filed for a divorce. Even though things were visibly not going well and although she was routinely depressed, Wendy told the psychiatrist that she didn’t want to put a stop to their relationship. Once she received the divorce papers, however, she knew that their marriage was over.
The physician explained to Wendy that the tension, stress, and anxiety that she has been going through regarding her irresponsible and abusive drinking are some of the better known alcohol abuse effects and that the best solution for this state of affairs is treatment for one’s alcohol abuse. In fact, getting alcohol abuse treatment is essential because long-term drinking can get the person into even more debilitating alcohol and alcoholism difficulties.
After ten or eleven treatment sessions with her doctor, Wendy was little by little able to understand that the real source of her tension and her depression was that she had not worked through her spiteful feelings she has for her ex-husband who had divorced her four-and-a-half years ago. With these insights and with the drugs her physician prescribed, she eventually quit drinking, she started to feel much less depressed, and she started making time for social activities with her family and friends. A few months after getting counseling from her physician, she even began to date once again.
It was evident that Wendy had come a long way. In truth, just about six months after she stopped her treatment, Wendy had finally laid the depressing feelings of Robert, her former husband, to rest and was starting to feel better about herself and more spiritually “sound” and psychologically “together” than she had ever felt in her life.

How To Win Him Back - By Being In His Head, Not His Face
by DIGauthor on Oct.16, 2009, under Dating
Have you recently split? Are you desperate to learn how to win him back?
You first move should be to stop any & all contact.
Probably the last thing on your mind, but it will work. Believe me.
No doubt you are feeling some serious emotional pain right now.
Chances are you are on an emotional roller coaster.
You get the best of both worlds if you cut all contact with your ex.
First it will give you a bit of time to heal.
A chance to heal on an emotional level.
It’s important to both you & the ‘win him back’ plan.
You may well blow any remaining chance of getting your ex back if you aren’t under emotional control.
Being in control allows you to navigate through any potential explosive situation.
You get to show how cool you are under fire.
The other benefit of cutting contact is you will be conspicuous by your absence.
Yes he may have dumped you, so why would he miss you?
You were a constant in his life for a while. Not being there now will force him to wonder about you.
When he wonders where you are. He’s thinking about you.
It benefits you to be in his thoughts just a little, rather than not at all.
If you aren’t around and he thinks of you, his thoughts will probably be good.
So, how long do you keep away?
I suppose everyone is different and so will the period of absence.
I think about a month is the longest I’d go. You can’t afford to let him drift away.
What next? Your emotions are in A1 shape, you are now ready to try to win him back. How?
Great question. I’d advise you to put together an action plan.
Something that holds your hand every step of the way.
You can go one of two ways. Do it all yourself with your own plan.
Good luck with that.
Or you use a blueprint for success created by someone else.
Difficult to believe but methods & systems like this are out there on the internet.
Methods that have worked over and over for hundreds if not thousands of people.
Systems that you can follow step by step.
When I first discoved a system like this I honestly thought it was total BS.
I’m glad I decided to give one a try, oh boy am I glad.
Twelve thousand people can’t be wrong, right? That’s how many people have had success with the top selling system.
You now have a choice, go for it yourself and use your own skills.
Or take the route that the smart people take and borrow the wisdom of some successful people.
It’s a bit of a no brainer in my opinion.

Get My Wife Back - Couple Things To Do, Couple Things To Don’t & A Plan
by DIGauthor on Oct.13, 2009, under Dating
How do I get my wife back? I guess you can’t get that thought out of your head.
It was exactly the same for me when my partner left.
There is light at the end of the tunnel though, I can promise you that.
But what can I do?
Take a bit of time to be alone. No contact with your wife.
A little time for yourself won’t hurt.
You must be in control of your emotional side at all times. Use this time to get that control.
You can think about your plan of action while you are apart.
Are you going to just sit there and hope your wife comes back?
Or will you be a go getter and go get your wife back?
There’s another bonus to spending time with no contact.
Your total absence will be noticed.
By not being in your wife’s face you are at least in her thoughts. This is good.
Stuff you shouldn’t be doing
This list could be way long!
You should not be pestering your ex in any way.
Calling or texting too many times. Following or (please no) stalking will end any hope of getting them back.
Avoid drink and drugs as they will make things worse. Drink is a natural depressant so be warned.
You can drive you and your wife further apart with the stupid tactics described.
You could even end up with a stretch behind bars. And that will kill your hopes.
The last thing you need to do now is wreck any remaining chance you have.
It would be easy to ruin any plans you make with one simple mistake.
One rash move could blow your chances out of the water.

How To Win Him Back - With A Cunning Plan
by DIGauthor on Oct.12, 2009, under Dating
Split up recently? Looking to discover how to win him back?
Well, in my opinion your first move is to cut off all contact.
Sounds silly, but works wonders.
I guess you are going through an enormous amount of emotional upheaval at the moment.
I bet emotional meltdown is right around the corner.
Cutting contact with your ex will help you in more than one way.
First off, you get chance to heal.
A chance to heal those battered emotions.
Important in a couple of ways. Your health and your plan. The ‘get him back’ plan
You can kill any chance of success by going into it with your emotions running wild.
You can easily sail through any tense situation if you have total control of your emotions.
You get to show how cool you are under fire.
Secondly, cutting contact allows him to miss you.
If he finished with you, you’re probably wondering why he would miss my being around?
The fact is, if you aren’t in his face all the time he will notice this.
When he wonders where you are. He’s thinking about you.
And being in his thoughts is way better than not being in them.
If you aren’t around and he thinks of you, his thoughts will probably be good.
So, how long do you keep away?
Good question and it will be different for everyone.
I think about a month is the longest I’d go. You can’t afford to let him drift away.
What do you do next then, after you get your head into shape?
Another good question, and one I would answer with … Time to get a plan!
Something you can follow from the first step to the last step.
Your options are… Use your own skill to win him back.
Good luck with that.
Your other choice is to use a ready made system that has worked many times before.
Believe it or not there are a handful of systems and methods out there on the net.
Methods that have been proven to work over and over.
Step by step systems that will hold your hand all the way.
When I first discoved a system like this I honestly thought it was total BS.
But I had my mind changed.
There must be some magic behind it when the most popular system has over twelve thousand people raving about it.
So, your options now are…go into it blind and try to learn how to win him back yourself.
Or borrow the knowledge of others who have been there, done it & written the book!
I think (I know) the second choice is the safest and quickest way to success.
