I feel like anything is possible thanks to The Way Up

I used to be so limited by my own insecurities that I always played it safe. I would never rock the boat in my personal or professional life. I needed constant reassurance and validation in everything I did. All my life I felt like there was something more out there that I was missing and I couldn’t put my finger on what I was doing wrong. I always played by the rules. I never went out on a limb. I really wasn’t living my life, but I didn’t see that.

Passed over for a big promotion at work for the third time in four years, I decided I needed to find out what was holding me back. I talked to my medical doctor and he diagnosed me with an
anxiety disorder. He prescribed me several different medications over the course of a year, none of which really seemed to help. They just made me sleepy and almost worthless at times. I had difficulty functioning some days. It was awful.

Then, one day I was searching anxiety disorders on the Internet and came across this site, The Way Up. The information on this site was so helpful in showing me that I am not alone and that I can address my symptoms of anxiety without taking medications that bog me down and interfere with my ability to function efficiently and effectively. Dr. Priscilla Slagle’s free e-book changed my life. I learned that there is something I can do about my condition. Not only can I reshape my way of thinking and allow myself to express my thoughts and opinions about how something works, but I am now questioning things—questioning the relevance of certain rules that are in place and coming up with new and innovative ways to address inefficiencies in the office.

Last week, I was promoted to a middle management position. I know that it is largely due to the wealth of information I obtained through
The Way Up, and the incorporation of Dr. Slagle’s advice in my life. I have changed the way other people see me, and how I see myself. I feel like anything is possible thanks to what I have learned through this wonderful site.

Whether you need help addressing symptoms of depression or anxiety, or natural herbal supplements and nutritional supplements, or reading material that will help you focus on ways to positively change your way of thinking, and thus, your life, you need to check out The Way Up. It is the best move I have ever made.

The Way Up changed my life

I thought that having depression was just something I would have to live with for the rest of my life. The majority of the people on my mother’s side have struggled throughout their lives with the illness. Some were even institutionalized. I even used to joke that living with depression proved I was my mother’s daughter.

For years, I followed the advice of different doctors.
I took the pills. I read the self-help books. I joined support groups. I talked about my problems and set goals for myself and made up plans to achieve those goals. I was convinced that
depression was like diabetes and that by simply taking a pill or two every day, I could keep my symptoms at bay and function normally. What I didn’t realize is that there is more to depression than simply managing the symptoms through medication and counseling. You can talk about things until you are blue in the face, but if you don’t make positive changes in your life, you are doomed to keep repeating the same patterns and be stuck in a perpetual rut.

One day, I was researching depression online to find out if there were any new, better medications out there. The drug of the day wasn’t making me feel like I thought I should, and I was certain that there had to be some medicine out there that would fit the bill. I ran across The Way Up and I am so thankful for stumbling onto that site. Dr. Priscilla Slagle literally saved me from a life of medication after medication and doctor’s visit after doctor’s visit. I had no idea that I had so much power within myself to change my life for the better. Thanks to her wonderful free e-book as a resource, as well as the incorporation of nutritional supplements and natural herbal supplements, I have been able to claim my life as my own. I no longer depend on prescription drugs and consultations with doctors to determine my self worth. I am free to trust myself and my own decisions, without the crippling doubt and discontent in my life that for so long defined me.

The products available through
The Way Up are reasonably priced and I have always received the best service when making purchases through the site. In fact, the wonderful assortment of amino acid supplements and alternative medicine approaches I have incorporated into my daily routine have made a tremendous difference in my overall wellbeing. To anyone who is ready to break the cycle of depression in your life, I highly recommend this site and I think Dr. Slagle is a genius!
