I had a look at all the resources on this forum and just felt a bit overwhelmed with where to start!  So any recommendations appreciated.

Hi there. I guess, A good idea for me to start with, is to buy a book to read through… Dr David Burns MD writes some good stuff… Have a check on Amazon. We can even get secondhand books on there.
