    Look for the underlying cause of your depression. Conditions like pyroluria, undermethylation and hypoglycaemia are all common and frequently overlooked causes of depression. Most can be treated quite simply once you know you have them.

    My name is Mernie, an EFT practitioner for few years now. My latest client is a mother who takes care of a daughter who has mental health problem. Since her daughter would always want to be alone, I suggested to her that try surrogate tapping instead. Afte Just now, she joined theEFT training.

    Hi Gaila
    Sometimes our partners (husbands and wives) can be too close too us for us to feel like we can talk to them about our deepest issues. This is where maybe a good and trusted friend or neighbour, or professional counsellor can be supportive. You may also be able to trace some local support in your area by using the search engines on the internet or visiting your local library. You are not alone in feeling this way and there is help for you our there.

    The best thing to do when you feel something in your life is not quite going the way you want it to and you have been unable to improve the situation alone, is to seek extra help. Have you considered approaching your tutors for assistance. Maybe there is a student support group or counsellor you can chat with. You can make it if you look for the help you need.

    Bravo for a great lens. Very informative, for that I'm sharing my own experience. My daughter, Amanda, is not quite 10 years old and has had 5 years of therapy. One year play therapy, 3 years of holding therapy and 1 year of talk therapy. The diagnosis is bipolar disease and reactive attachment disorder.

    She throws violent fits several times per week. She is treated by a child psychiatrist and is heavily medicated. At our wits end we decided to try EFT with Gary Craig of Emofree. We have applied EFT training and after two weeks, we are already seeing more improvement than with all the other therapies combined.

    We still have a long way to go, but for the first time in many years we have hope that the fits may be stopped and our daughter can have a normal life.

    Hi, Nice lens, I think that keeping active is very important. Go for a long walk everyday or hit the gym. It may seem like too much effort when your down but it does make you feel much better. When your well and happy the rest of the family is happy too. Swimming is also great for giving yourself a boost.
