Had a difficult session with my therapist today. I didn't trust or believe most of the things she said to me because she made it sound as if there's some easy solution to depression - "think positive thoughts" blahblahblah. But hours later after having some time to think about what she said and reflect, looking at it in a different way, I can see how some of the things she suggested could help (not cure it, but help). She recommended that I do more positive things as well. Such as blow bubbles. I used to do that as a kid, and honestly it sounds fun. Simple, child-like. I think self-help is going to help me more than therapy will, but it's still nice to have someone to dump all my feelings onto, at least.
Felt pretty hopeless all day and night, having a bit of a hopeful spell now at 1 am but I dunno if it'll last.
