My brother and I are from two different religons, but since my mother died in 
08 I suffer from seperation anxiety when he leaves or my older brother and his 
family leaves. When I know it's time for them to leave I feel my guts tie in 
knots and I get nausiated and depressed and cry. they leave and I am depressed 
for a few good hours. 

This time my brother told me about the zen approache to life. I am a christian 
but I found I can use the zen ways to overcome my emotions, learn to meditate 
and over come crying and depression nausia and feeling terrible after they 
leave for a week or so. This time he talked to me and gave me a few practices 
to repeat to myself, hate that emotional problem, be free of it, it's useless 
and only makes me feel bad and is not good for me. I dont need it. 

I would like you guys to help me use zen to free myself of anger, depression 
seperation anxiety and work, I work retail and got so angry at work and life 
that I took a week off. I need to master my emotions...my brother said finding 
a good forum of people to help me with new zen techniques would help. I am a 
newbie to the zen world so if you dont mind...I do need to kick this 
problem...it's not doing me any good and I dont need to feel this way it's 
useless and I hate it.
