I love the Coping Skills Compendium! Especially the stuff on anxiety, which I have. "Remember that all emotions are temporary" is something my mom has always told me. The journal stuff seems neat too, I might start a journal soon, I honestly need somewhere to rant so it probably will be filled with negativity :P

Ranting/venting can be a great use of a journal. It's got to come out somewhere! I find it helps most to follow heavy vents with something positive/optimistic- in my experience, it helps balance out the negativity and levels out my perspective on things. Even "I'm still alive and this will pass" counts.
And I'm glad the compendium helps! Anxiety can be really frustrating to deal with sometimes- I've had more trouble with it than I did with depression. Something my therapist told me was that some anxiety is "top-down" (thoughts -> body) and some is "bottom-up" (body -> thoughts), and it helps more to target the source. Never occurred to me that there was a difference before then.
