DONNA DEWBERRY WAS "THE SECRET"

The Secret (2006 film)Image via WikipediaI was suffering from Agoraphobia for 4 years. Although I had reached therapeutic levels of medication, I still found it too difficult to leave my home for even short periods of time. After awhile I developed insomnia, and found that I was sitting for hours on end watching television not even realizing when I had already seen the shows that were on.

One night I was channel surfing and ran across Donna Dewberry teaching her "One Stroke Painting Method" and I was instantly attracted to it. The next day I drove to an A.C.Moore and purchased all the products necessary to learn her classic "Cabbage Rose" and the leaves. Never being very crafty, except for short periods of time, I started to paint and then I began to create. I worked with wooden serving trays and matching stemware, wooden jewelry boxes, various types of candle holders that I painted and filled with gel wax for candles and anything else I could find. What took place was a miracle to me, I began to recover. It was only for short periods of time but I developed more tolerance over time. It was shortly after that that I discovered "The Secret" and "The Law of Attraction" and my life has improved tremendously. I occasionally have short periods of PTSD but I recover quickly now, and I am able to function again. I started to go to school online to get a degree and I am about to train for certification in Family Advocacy for members of families that have mental and physical disabilities. I have blogs on "The Secret" and "Oppositional Defiant Disorder", with resources for other mental illnesses and also resources for legislation related to mental and physical disabilities and research.

I have suffered from depression since my early teens, and only in the last year have I actually found recovery, and it was because of "The Secret" and Donna Dewberry.
