Oh Susan, I know how awful this can be. I can't draw up any positive thoughts but it helps when my T reminds me that I have felt that badly before and then gotten better. I sort of have to take what she says as an article of faith because when I'm in that state, I think I'll never feel differently. I also think it's better for me just to "be" with my awful depression - not to ponder the ramifications of it, or analyze it, and certainly not to put any expectations on myself to beat it.
A thousand hugs to you.
