As I sit here watching Goal 2 and talking to my friend Mikey online, I am struggling to get the words out that I would like to express in this blog posting. Expressing myself has never been an easy task for me. Nevertheless, here I sit, trying my hardest to put my feelings and express my thoughts into this blog post. Here is my attempt to share one of my internal conflicts. More will follow in the next few weeks.
If you have been reading my blog on a regular base for the last few months, you will have read that I attended an anxiety and depression group. This group has since been cancelled, so I now meet with the psychologist that was suppose to run this group on a one-on-one base. During the last meeting, I came to realize that one of the biggest obstacles in living the life I want to live is dealing with the conflicts in my life. What I mean by this is it seems that there are two sides in my life to several important issues and I have not yet concluded on which side I want to be. Sometimes it is one side, other times the other side seems to be winning.

A few weeks ago I recevied an email from a gentleman whom expressed to me that he too has been dealing with anxiety. He also dealing with depression as well. In his email, he told me about how he recently attended a weekly class at his a local church (He too is Catholic). He didn’t say what the focus point of this class was, but he did mention that after attending it, he has felt more anxeity and depression then he was feeling. The reason he relates to this are several topics they discussed in this class, which were masturbation and acting on homosexuality. He asked if I had any idea of why his panic attacks and depression has increased due to this.I did try to respond to his email, but for some reason it came back as being undelivable. So I have decided to post the email here in hopes that he will come back to my blog and read it and/or someone else that is dealing with a similar problem may gain something from it. Here is my response:

Wow, I just checked my blog and seen that it has been about a month since the last time I posted anything. That is way to long to not post an entry. Sorry for such a long interval between postings, I will do my best not to let it happen again.
Anyways, things have been going alright with me. I wrote about how I was attending an anxiety and depression support group in my last posting. Well, since then, the group is no longer. The powers to be decided that having just one person in the group wasn’t enough. So until they find a few more people to attend this group, there will not be one. On a brighter note, the lady that was running the group said I could see her on an individual bases. Right now I have things set up with her to see her every other week, but I may change that just once a month. We will see how things go and what issues we decided to work on.
