Re-thinking is part of healing yourself. It's most of what me and my therapist work on. For many people, depression is a state of mind and it has to be slowly transformed into what we want our mind to be.
I agree that it is very draining. Some people suggest medication to help with this problem. They say it makes it easier to "maintain" and gives you back that energy you're spending on just staying afloat.
