In reply to Is this depression-Does anyone else..., posted by Kel on October 6, 1999, at 20:55:25
I am very familiar with these out-of controll feelings. I'm not sure if this is depression, or if it some behavior that is linked to depression, or if it is something totally different.
I think we are well on our way to getey better with it as we have recognized that there is a problem. I try to be aware of my unreasonable feelings and meke a point of not acting on them. Once I get unstuck with the feeling a little, I often find that I can remove myself from the situation.
I've been working on this for years, and I am getting a little better with it.One of the very hard things for me was the recognition that even if I get better, the situation necessarily doesn't. Sometimes I just find it unfair that *I* must work on my personality problems when other peole can run free with theirs. But the fact is, with the things we are dealing with we cannot afford to be as good as 'normal' people (And I am seriously questioning if there is such thing) we must be better.
We cannot change the world, we can only change ourselves.
