Dear Casey,
yes, I am working through the programm here in this site, I am in lesson 4 or 5 (don't remember).
I found cognitive behavioral therapy very useful for my panic attacks that's why I decided to try to work with depression also.
Simultaneously I am also reading a book about cognitive behavioral therapy and how it can help to cope with depression.
Now I am ready to talk about my biggest fears but some time ago I was afraid to talk about them and didn't mention them to my psychoterapist. Then I read that if we talk about our prior fears they become more manageable and I decided to be more open with my pshychoterapist.
Hi Madara,
Thanks for sharing this insight here with us.
It is good to hear that you are working with your therapist. Have you been working through the online program also? This, in combination with your counselling, will help you to understand more about your depression and overcoming these types of fears and thought control.
Casey

my biggest fears are to lose control and fall into chaos. when I have episdoes of depression, I cannot control my thoughts. it's a mind-storm that is happening in my brain. then I hope everything will be OK someday, I'll manage to get it through. the last time I had a depression epidose, I was controlling my appetite, I had thoughts like- I cannot eat, I will starve etc. and scared to death.
Now I eat and it's OK but still in the deepest part of me there are these deepest fears that I fear to lose control over my thoughts.
I go to psychoterapist and I know that it is because i like to control things and if I cannot control the wprld, I control myself. I cannot take a responsibility of myself and rely on myself. How to learn it? The answer is only in me and it scares also...
