Thanks, I'll take the time to work through these.

A big part of me is afraid that if I convince myself to feel confident I'll go out and make another mess of things, start something and not finish it, fail again... so that fear makes it seem dangerous to try to "heal". My mental struggles don't seem like diseases to me, they feel logical, and so it's tough to think that it would be OK to think any other way...

... but as I said, I'll attempt to be brave and work through your links. Thanks again.
