While it is unlikely that two persons suffering from depression have the same exact triggers, we cannot deny that we've all had the same bitter taste of this dreadful "mental" condition:
- the constant terrifying sense of foreboding and hopelessness
- that perpetual queasy sensation in the gut
- the weakness in the limbs
- the persistent mental pull to focus on the negative things
- the inability to get satisfaction from sleep
- and the constant need to breathe deeply as an attempt to ease our chests from the burden of unrelenting pounding palpitations.
These and many other harrowing characteristics of depression, in different shades of severity, are the common grounds shared by most people who suffer from it.
In each therapy chapter, you will witness how every one of these awful facets of depression was dealt with and whether there was success or not. You will have an unobstructed view of the nitty gritty, the darkest and most naked of thoughts, the smallest and biggest of steps taken, and all the failures and successes in between.
You will see how seemingly insignificant steps can prove to be reliable lifeline out of your horrible pit of depression. From these intimate efforts, you can draw out your own customized templates for therapy that you can readily use any given time that you need them, anywhere, unlimited times, for free.
It is my hope that you would find the same courage that enabled me to strip my mind naked as I faced the only person in the Therapy Room: ME.
When you realize that you can face and look in the eye this stark-naked person that you are - and that you are willing to improve the areas that you can and accept those you cannot - then you have the rest of the therapy time to enjoy.
