^^^ why doesn't depression count?

The Bible Belt thinks depression is a myth and that all you need to do is work yourself to death or let God take it out of you. :roll:

depression is the biggest cause of disability. ridiculous to call it a myth. can you appeal? and appeal? and appeal?

My mind pretty much thinks I am doomed and should just put myself out of my misery. Having Aspergers and being born into the Bible Belt has been a living nightmare for me.

your mind isn't working perfectly because it's being influenced by the negativity of depression. please appeal.

I feel like I might need a break from this forum. It's just not helping me to post on here. Even the people who say they are on my side eventually tell me to get lost.

i'm sorry if i sounded dismissive. it's just that depression lies to us that we need to give up.

My thought patterns have been the way they are for nearly 12 years now, though. Will it take the same amount of time to change them? I can't bear living another 12 years like I've had to go through.

with help and conscientious practice, you can change your thought patterns in a matter of months. google cbt and see if there are a few thoughts you can challenge now. if your therapist is skilled in cbt, a proven treatment, he/she is worth fighting to keep.

I don't have a therapist anymore, though. Our last session was a week ago. She actually did some CBT with me but my mind still remained entrenched with the thoughts I have. This only reinforces the idea that my brain can't change and I can't learn new things.

how much cbt is "some cbt?" doesn't sound as if that was the main focus.

anyone who can so creatively reinforce his own depression with thoughts that counter many attempts to help is obviously smart and can learn.
