I agree with Mark..........BUT
it seems almost impossible when you have relied upon your negative thots for so many years, that you will ever be able to have the strength to change them to positive thots.
It's almost like we come to feel "at home" in our depression. If we had the strength, we wouldn't be here in the first place....which makes it all the more hopeless.
We don't have the strength to change our way of thinking.HAPPINESS IS NOT BEING UNDEPRESSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take the medications and WORK, WORK, WORK on developing a new strategy of thot
