The actions you take to manage the consequences can strongly influence your day to day life. We believe that as Abe continues forward with his therapist, he will work towards reducing his anxiety and depression.  We hope Abe's self-image increases, which would also improve his self-esteem. Abe's anger issues and aggressive behavior towards his wife will hopefully decrease. His goal setting in the work place will help to build his motivation in a positive  way. In conclusion, we all agree that Abe can live a productive and fulfilling life. ]]> 2018-09-27 13:22:43 UTC https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286493305 klord0204 https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286509933 2018-09-27 13:46:16 UTC https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286509933 ajones0116 https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286512985 2018-09-27 13:50:32 UTC https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286512985 sfrie1206 https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286515273 2018-09-27 13:53:42 UTC https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286515273 klord0204 https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286516547 2018-09-27 13:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286516547 ajones0116 https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286516774 2018-09-27 13:55:44 UTC https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286516774 ****************FIRE POWER***************** klord0204 https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286516809 2018-09-27 13:55:47 UTC https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286516809 Example sfrie1206 https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286643268 The filing system was changed at Abe's work and he frequently gets confused. ]]> 2018-09-27 17:07:22 UTC https://padlet.com/klord0204/abesmith/wish/286643268
