Oh, I agree that CBT isn't always the only way! He incorporate different aspects as well. As CBT is mainly short term (as I've read), or at least has a goal termination date, we don't have any time frame in mind. And we aren't constantly working on "fixing" negative thoughts. Mainly we are working on my dreams right now and talking about them. Is that CBT? I wouldn't think so, but that's all we've been doing for the last few weeks.

And I agree that CBT isn't particulary helpful for all people. But it has helped me quite a bit. Maybe it is because I've gotten to the root of my problem and also corrected or challenged some of my negative htought patterns unconsciously. But, it really hasn't been to my knowledge or own doing, I promise you that! I'm very stubborn and wouldn't sit around thinking myself out of depression. Or even thinking that I could think myself out of it. (Does that make sense?)

And the voices were native american chants. I tried ear plugs (LMAO! Like that would work!) I was more frustrated than anything. If this had happened 3 weeks ago, I would be fine with it. It's just that the timing is wrong. Hoping it doesn't happen again tonight :) Thinking positive. Did I learn that from CBT? Strange, but last night I was calm. I jsut kept telling myself, "This isn't real. Just go to sleep." And I did. Maybe CBT works. I didn't have a panic attack, as I was prone to do in the past. Maybe CBT works? Maybe it's the drugs I take? I don't know, I don't care. As long as I don't freak out, I'm fine with it!

I'm hoping you have a better day hun! You're a Capricorn. You'll persevere and keep on going. Just don't get lost in the process. And don't think that your needs don't matter especially when you hold everyone else's needs so very high!
