Hello and welcome! Why can't we simply say, "Pain, Pain, Go Away!"? And why does it seems "Suffering is always a part of Living"?

After therapy, medication and therapy group programs, besides the 12 Step Programs, I could not eas …

I avoided social situations where interaction was required. I worried all the time about what others thought of me when I spoke and I never seemed to know what to say anyway. Any of this sound fa …
