Hi Colin, I had never heard of CBT so I googled it and it all sounds interesting. I am going to look into it a bit further later.
I hope it helps your Son.

marlene , they do mindfulness which bsk recomends & they do like Progressive Muscle Relaxation which would help people with fibro

the national rheumatiod arthritis society recommends it so think it would help alot of us
