Recovery straight up sucks. Now don’t get me wrong, choosing to recover saved my life. I would be dead otherwise. But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Original material by Devonne Carter, LCSW Have you ever experienced anxiety or panic when due to someone not returning a text? Have you ever had spiraling or out of control thoughts when someone does return a text? Have you ever counted how many times you checked your phone in one hour?
by Jennifer Winton, Founder and Executive Director of UShine As most of you know, UShine is a mental and emotional health program that brings awareness, education, and hope to university students. We understand that anxiety, emotional distress, and depression can show up in every day ways and even life-threatening ways for our students. UShine strives to shift the conversation on campuses to create an open and accepting awareness and support of emotional and mental well-being. Our holistic programs help students understand the science of our emotions and feelings, find spiritual strength and hope in God's love and learn practical tools to help them better their well being - mind, body and spirit. by Vivian Hoffmeister Welcome to our blog!
