Having been severely depressed for 7 years and probably depressed for longer than that, I have done a lot of thinking about this and have come to many of the same conclusions as you although I must say I didn't come quite as far.

Anyway, I gave Snap Club a try, I'm currently on my 3rd day of snapping and I've already noticed many changes in my mood and my thinking patterns. Going through each day is nowhere near as hard as it used to be. Some of the negative thoughts I had that repeated over and over again, day after day, are either gone completely or they still rear their ugly head occasionally but for the most part, I can simply observe them and let them go.

I still can't believe it's had such an impact on my life in only 2 days and a few hours. You're an amazing person !
Congratulations SparklingFire! It's pretty amazing isn't it? It's still working for me and many others too.

Best wishes,
