hey...
i think that while putting a name ('depression') to it is one thing... it doesn't really help with sorting it out. it might be the case that you have an opportunity here to see if you can figure out how come you feel depressed at times and to figure out why you struggle a little with anxiety, procrastination etc at times. it might be that the sessions are really helpful for you.
the therapist i see... well... lets just say that i was told that i functioned 'too highly' for the public mental health service... and i guess i function pretty highly generally (as do you). but... i'm far from optimal. i mean... my supervisors etc are fairly happy with me (though they would say that i stress a bit too much and procrastinate a little much at times). but they are happy enough... but seeing a therapist really helps me with respect to trying to figure out what is holding me back from getting more of what i want to do done. it could be a nice opportunity. and... even nicer that they are prepared to invest in it :-)
can you give it a shot?
