For the first years of my illness I talked so much about how poorly I felt. From now on I will not talk about it because when I dont, I feel better. It’s a paradox.

I faked it and found out it is real. I thank you for sharing this way for me.
Well, you’re welcome. The credit goes to AA - it’s where I learned it and it worked for me to my surprise.

Yea man… I always feel better after letting go. I had to do it this morning and it’s super hard to let go of those negative thoughts
the less help you need the more help you get in return.
I don’t recommend suffering in silence, but you could always use analogies when you wish to relay something to others. one way of faking it.
Ya, my mom shared me a psychologist talking to Joe Rogan about how depression is magnified by rumination and talking too much about your problems. I tend to do that a lot. People don’t get better.
