Self-help is
useful, but it is not a substitute for professional assistance.
Emotional and behavioral problems can be debilitating and dangerous.
Please seek professional help:
if you have thoughts of killing yourself or harming others;
if you feel depressed, anxious, guilty or down on yourself frequently;
if you are abusing substances; if your performance or interpersonal
relationships are impaired.
"Our purpose is to give information.. We can not, and are not,
assuming the role of your physician or therapist in any of our replies.
We also do not know your other medical problems and psychiatric
diagnoses, which usually have a dramatic effect on medication (and other
treatment) recommendations. You must make a medical and treatment plan
with your physician and therapist(s).
Cheryl has unselfishly
volunteered her time to answer emails from consumers or their family members and friends as a
Christian Chaplain.
Cheryl says...
"Have you ever wondered where God is when people suffer? Did He cause the suffering? Does He care? If you ever have questions like this, you might want to talk to a Chaplain.
I would be happy to answer any questions you might have about the God of the Bible and His working in this world. I would also be willing to disciple those who are Christians who want to walk closer to Him.
If you have any questions, or would just like to talk you can reach me via e-mail at:

In His Service, Cheryl" (1Peter 3:15)
