What are different topics that can be used in group therapy for addicts?

Pritikin Recipes

Hi; I am a counselor (with my Master of Arts/M.A.). I have one year of experience as a counselor (in addition to my internship), so I still have a lot to learn. I recently started a new job at a center for detoxification and rehabilitation for those with alcohol and drug dependency. Soon I will be running my own groups and I need different topics to make things interesting and fresh. Any ideas?

How can I help myself, my grief over my husband of 40 years death gets worse and harder to deal with daily.?

Pritikin Recipes

We were unusually close. We got together when I was 15, he was 19. Besides our incredible love for each other, we were truly each others best friend. We always just wanted to be with each other. We were insepperable. There were many very special circumstances to our relationship. I can’t explain those circumstances here, but we were each others "rock of gibralter". Believe me, it was heavy. Now I’m here alone. I have no family, we couldn’t have kids and I don’t have any friends. I am disabled, but I have no medical insurance so I can’t afford therapy. I also suffer from PTSD and DID from a horrible childhood full of both physical and emotional abuse. I’m starting to look forward to death because I truly believe that we will be together again then. Plus the pain is so unbearable. I wish I could take a pill that would make me feel better for even a little while. I promised him that I would never drink alcohol again (alcohol and I don’t get along) So I haven’t – yet. I went to a regular physician and told him of my problem and asked if he would prescribe something for a short period so I could just take a break from this unbearable pain even a little. He said no. I’m afraid of what will become of me if I keep getting worse like this. I don’t answer the phone or door anymore. I’ve begun getting calls from "bill collectors" (that is a first) I listen to the messages and erase them and don’t bother writing down the phone numbers, I simply don’t care about anything at all. Life has been very bad for me literally since I was conceived. But this is by far the worst of all. Because we were so young when we got together, I feel like I’m at 15 again. I am very naive, and gullible. People have taken advantage of me. I have been stolen from. A contractor stole ,500.00 from me. My puny, embarrassing savings, every cent. And all but .00 out of my checking. So, i may be homeless soon. As it is I can’t pay rent and eat too. I have no idea who I am, I don’t feel like I belong here anymore. i just don’t fit in. No one wants to hear this depressing stuff, i understand that totally, so I try to hold it in and smile and make "happy". Inside, I am crying so hard that it sound like screaming. Can anyone out there relate to this?

5 of 5 Diet wars – Low fat vs low carb

tinyurl.com — People put on weight when they take in more calories than they burn. If you think of food as fuel, the energy content of the fuel is measured in calories. A slice of bread, for example, has about 100 food calories. If you were to add up all the calories you consumed in a day — breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks — that’s your energy input. Your body uses this energy for everything from breathing to moving around. Everyone is different, but over the course of a day, an “average” man expends something like 1800 calories and an “average” woman around 1500 calories. Jon Palfreman is the producer of “Diet Wars.” It turns out that even a slight energy imbalance will, over time, have consequences. Eating only 50 calories a day more than you burn will over time translate into about one pound a year, or 30 pounds over three decades. – Is it fair to blame low fat-dietary advice (such as that contained in the USDA food pyramid) for the obesity crisis? No. While the percentage of fat in the American diet dropped from 40 percent in 1990 to around 34 percent today, the absolute amount of fat actually increased. The true explanation for the obesity epidemic is much simpler: Americans are eating more total calories. In the 1990s, the bulk of those additional calories came from carbs — mostly refined starches and sugary drinks. – How do diets work? All diets work by restricting calories. Since simply telling people to eat smaller portions doesn’t sell books, most
