ST. BEACH, Fla. (UPI) - Tough, PETERSBURG self-rehant don't patients who worry about them- selves seem to fare best in the first year after a heart attack. Psychiatrist Melvin J. Stern said in a_ report released last week most heart attack survivors do well socially and psychologi- cally, but the most suc- cessful are those who see their physical problems as Only temporary interruptions in their normal way of life. Those patients who don’t do as well after a heart at- tack are more likely to be ht This is the lull before the storm.

That ending, however, is ameliorated by the knowledge that comes April 8, it all starts again. “Pewter Smithing” sounds like one of the most in- teresting new titles to be offered vou, this” time around. Given by Madeline Chisholm, the course will entail the making of items such as goblets, ladles, and hammered bowls. You need Ni obsessed with physical symptoms. Stern said these people are frequently depressed, discouraged and feel unable to control life’s. events. Stern, an _ associate professor at the George Washington University Medical Center in Washington, based his observations on two separate studies of 63 and 68 predominately middle-class, white patients. He said more than three quarters were able to return to work and previous levels of sexual functioning. More than 80 per cent did not experience the anxiety or depression that can disrupt not have any experience at ali in this kind of craft, for you won't be handling molten metal, only sheets which you will hammer and fashion into the items of your choice. The tools will be supplied - - you'll buy the material, (the sheet pewter), but as it’s only 1.25 an ounce, you can see that this will be a very af- fordable activity. Spring, of course, is when the outdoor = activities beckon, and to that end there are many choices: “Bonsai and Miniature Trees” is one of them. It starts on April 9th, at Windsor, and I only wish I had time to take that one myself.

Stern told an American Heart Association seminar ' although only one of every five patients studied was a woman, half the depressed patients were women. Most - were hospitalized again with a cardio-vascular com- plication and more than half failed to return to work or previous levels of sexual activity. “Married women suffered a further complication in that they were frequently overprotected by zealous husbands who forbade them to do even light housework as well as denying them sex in the mistaken belief that hool Notes “Flower Arranging” on the first night of the new session, at West Vancouver High will be another popular one and again it’s recommended that you indicate your choices early by pre-registering. “Organic Vegetables -- Grow Your Own” will be a most satisfying series -- this goes from 7:30 to 10:00, again on Mondays, at West Van. “Indoor Plants, Planters & Terrariums” doesn't begin until April 14 and continues a week later.

One of the studies also showed spouses of heart attack victims reported Significant psychological distress in the year following the heart attack. Stern said those spouses who had the most problems were most likely to be married to the patent who denied ap- prehension and who was particularly self reliant. “Faced with the im- possible situation of wanting support from a block of granite and not being able to hammer away to get it as in the past, the spouse crumbled in a welter of anxiety, depression and confusion,” Stern said.
