we 'should' cycle through each night, caffeine affects one of those levels and we do not sleep as deep as we could. The quality of our sleep is affected. NOTE: Some antidepressants prolong the time that caffeine stays in the body. Anything over 150 mg caffeine for those individuals could create sleep problems.

3. GRADUALLY reduce your caffeine intake systematically. Reducing by 25% on week 2, reduce by 50% at week 3, 75% week 4 and progressing to 0% at week 5.

4. Gradually, starting with week 2, increase your daily exercise (perhaps 10 or 20 minutes) to counteract any "downs" that may occur in the first three weeks.

Let us know how you are doing...

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

The Midwest Center would like to thank all the people who gave
us a day of their lives. Several people flew in to do a testimonial
for the ATTACKING ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION program
last November. We had a great time even though it
snowed – which was interesting for the folks from the southern
states. We appreciate your willingness to share your life stories.
The first version of the film is on the air at this time.
 

QUOTE FOR THE MONTH

I found it easier to face my fears than to BE afraid.

I was doing phone support with a
wonderful young man and he was
grieving over the loss of his mother.
He commented, "She always had my
back." I told him... She still does.
