[QUOTE="Jers, post: 265382, member: 2574"] Sorry for your problems Greyson. My own experiences of pipe smoking and stress/depression fall broadly into what has been discussed above. Smoking a pipe is an enjoyable experience for me and when I am really down I don't feel the ability to enjoy anything. That said, if I don't feel too low, I will sometimes force myself to load a pipe in the morning and try to regulate and elevate my mood by smoking whilst attempting work through my low mood by cognitive reasoning and/or reading a book. It doesn't always work but it can help start the day with an improvement. I view the strategy as a sneaky back door into meditation. In any event good luck with the house brother - hopefully things will fall into place for you. Best wishes Jers [/QUOTE]
