May 8, 2009
On Monday, May 11th, I will be celebrating 19 years of having graduated with my Master's of Social Work and becoming a psychotherapist. In 1986 is when I officially entered the field of mental health. I am trying very hard to not feel old.
In celebration of all these years in the field, I have decided to start a blog with the hope that I can address issues affecting others in the world of cyberspace.
I am by no means computer literate or an internet junkie, yet! But I hope to reach others that for whatever reason do not go to a therapist's office. I wrote a column for a local community newspaper many years ago and found that to be a lot of fun. Well, here I go again.
It is Friday evening and I hope everyone makes it a good weekend. Make plans for some activities, get out and do! I will be running a 5K, getting back into running since my last half marathon in January 2009. I have attended to other issues and have slacked on running. I am being kind to myself and not doing the 10K. Hobbies and especially exercise are very important. Any aerobic exercise gets more oxygen to your brain and helps with concentration while also releasing those good ole endorphins. So go do something this weekend even if you have to push yourself. You will feel better after.
