I think this is really interesting, thank you so much for sharing it. I've already given the link to a few of my friends, and considering giving it to my school counsellor.
I think SNAP CLUB could be a really valuable therapy, can I ask what you've done to share this? Currently posted online and done a talk (congratulations!) from what I've picked up, but i almost want the whole world to know about this...so many people could benefit from it
Thanks very much for the comments zoetic. I also think that this is valuable therapy and could help many people. As for sharing, I've been in touch with several psychologists at one of the Harvard affiliated hospitals here in Boston (Brigham and Womens). They were interested enough to invite me to make a presentation for about 15 of their depression patients as part of their therapy (that's what those hand written notes are from). Pretty soon we'll have feedback about how well this works from those patients. Judging from a few earlier patients and from the reception I got, I think that the results are going to be really positive. The smiles from a few who have tried it for about a month and the "aha"s from the new patients as they recognize what has been really happening to them is very encouraging to me. I think that SNAP CLUB works because I'm right about how depression works, at least for many people. Feel free to spread the word in Australia in the mean time!
