Depression vs hormones
Yeah, I wish I could say I was just spectacularly insightful but I gotta credit my profession - - I'm a therapist too! I used to not be so Cognitive-Behavioral but it's what seems to work with ALOT of my clients so I go with what works for them.
You feel what you feel - no one can debate it or tell you what to feel. That's not their right. I'm sorry that you were raised with not being allowed to feel what you feel. Now that you're an adult, you have the right to own what you feel & no one can take it away from you anymore, not without your consent!
Keep fighting the good fight!

Thanks... yeah I knew your profession, but C is always willing to take a little back-up haha
I do better with the feelings, but still get really anxious if he asks for more than "I feel sad" (ie - what does that feel like). The first time I shed tears in his office was the first time I had cried , other than loss of a pet, etc since I was 14yrs old. It is a safe place and I am learning to feel things outside of his office as well.
I looked up that book on Amazon and WOW... I ordered it immediately reading the "preview" pages. Thank you for the reference.
