^^^^^ THIS WEEK'S COPING TIP ^^^^^

A reader offers advice for people recovering from agoraphobia . . .

"I always give myself an out, so if I find I have to leave, it's OK; there is always next time. I never tell myself I have to walk 6 blocks; I tell myself I will go as far as I can today. That way, I don't feel defeated."

Depression at The Mining Co.
Maintained by Nancy Schimelpfening
http://depression.about.com/

It's not unusual for people with anxiety disorders to also experience depression (and vice versa). Nancy Schimelpfening's Depression site is *the* place to learn everything you need to know about depression and its treatments. Recent features include information on Seasonal Affective Disorder and the Holiday Blues -- timely information for many of us. Nancy also has a bulletin board and chat if you're looking for depression support.
