Hi everyone,
I've been here for about a week and just trying to find my way around. I have been dealing with depression/anxiety/PTSD for many years now and I am finally ready to heal and get on with my life. Looking forward to the next chapter.

Thank you 🤗
Hello everyone,
i have recently started a CBT course and although its designed to help. Im now openly talking about issues Ive hidden away for a while and I feel more vulnerable than before and my mood has decreased. If anyone has any advice or guidance on how they dealt with this, I would be so grateful. I just feel lost and have begun to be overly sensitive about the smallest things.
Id appreciate any help.

@Sarahharrison I'd say keep going with it. I recently did some intensive CBT, and a lot of parts of it, especially in the beginning, involve uncomfortable realizations or recognitions of how certain thought patterns affect your emotions and behaviors. It's not an easy or passive thing. It takes some hard work and confrontation of things that you might have been avoiding. But for me, it was very helpful. Even afterward, you have to practice things like positive thinking... you have to practice it. Maybe you can talk to your counselor/therapist (whoever is running it) about your concerns, too.
Thank you so much @kiki2018
its nice to know Im not the only one.
Im new here and Im here because my life has been a disaster for too long and I need to help myself.
