Yeah mine does. I was never used to it so it will take time for me to get used to it. Not necessarily a bad thing but it's not an easy thing either.

I wouldn't say my depression is triggered, it's more like the filter my life is seen through. I do get my feelings hurt, that is I feel sorry for myself, about certain things. In particular, when I think about what I let alcoholism take from me. I think depression makes me more susceptible to self pity. To address the topic though, I've had therapists give me homework and it was along the lines of what you are taking about. It was helpful. Maybe you could share it with us on the forum?

Sure.

What a great assignment crazyhaze. My therapist gives me homework every visit as well, my current assignment is picking two events from my week and coming in telling them full of enthusiasm. I'm working on social anxiety homework this week, sometimes if it's PTSD homework I will be given worksheets to list triggers, feelings and thoughts. I've received all sorts of assignments, they've been a huge help for me.

Yeah homework is awesome as long as they review the homework the next visit. My therapist always forgot about it. Then we'd talk about something entirely unrelated. Looking for a new therapist.

My bout with depression is not really towards any one thing. My negative thoughts, however usually center around "wasting my life". The truth is I've been battling with drug addiction and alcoholism for most of my adult life. But there are underlying birds about myself that I have yet to dispel. They are deeply rooted. So much so they are normal to me. I don't know what my life would be like with out them.

My financial situation is pretty much the thing I'm most anxious about, that and house/yard work.

As far as anger, there are a few things that trigger me, but of all the areas of my life that I struggle with, I am making the most programs with anger. I'm not nearly as angry as I was a few years ago.

If you feel is good for you then more power to you. Happy trails
