Does cognitive therapy help one integrate having Manic-Depression
into one's identity. For instance, you're used to being an
over-achiever, athlete and in complete control over your present
and future. Then, here comes this crippling disease.
Now, you don't know who you are anymore (except for the fundamentals;
like your personal belief system) although, maybe for some who are
afflicted also have their value system disenfranchised.
Please, tell me what this cognitive therapy is about. It may be
a helpful facet of my recovery (whenever that'll take place, ha).
Looking for shore upon which to land,
