You have been so comforting & hopeful for me. You are a such good person.

It sounds like you are going through a more severe period right now. Maybe it will lead you to something that will help more long-term. These episodes do ease up. And they make our thinking and perception of reality more difficult.

Psychologists/Counselors have different ideas on dealing with the past. Mine thinks it is of no value. Unless you feel like you need to deal with a traumatic event.

For me counselors have just been someone nice to talk to. They have realized how chemical/physical my mood disorder is. For the 2 weeks after ECT I actually felt good- and my thoughts *automatically* were positive. I wanted to do nice things for people, bake cookies, actually enjoy things.

Not to discount cognitive therapy, it helps so many. I just wanted to make the point that you shouldn't blame yourself. It's more of a struggle when your brain isn't inclined to be in Happyville.

I hope you feel better soon. You will feel better. I can't wait for the day when we can sing "I made it through the rain"!
