Anybody here deal with depression?

CBT is great, you can even do it from your own computer. Check this out: CBT Self Help - Step 3

I had few spells of depression and sad feelings, sometimes caused by life events, but even hormonal imbalances had similar effect- and usually those two come together to make things more worse- body and mind do work together.

For me best relief was watching tv shows, it would take my mind of worrying- and in my experience idle brain is playground for depression. Other thing is I found that once something bad happens or sad happens its like avalanche- sad toughts keep coming till they crush you completely- and this is where CBT is extremely effective- basically you learn how to play it down.


Actually, your question should be: " Anybody here that did not have to deal with depression? "
