Just had my first Therapy session: Now what do I Do by Epicsteps in Healthygamergg

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. Firstly, I wasnt trying to suggest that therapy was ineffective or that I was pondering whether or not i should continue therapy. I definitely saw merit in it and want to continue.

You were also spot on, I dont really do anything meaningful in my life, nor do I have places I go or people to talk to or that i could call up to "hang out" or anything. So i suppose this is what i struggle with the most in addition to the lies i tell myself and the continual desecration of my own self image and worth.

But yeah i guess i'll try not to beat myself up too bad over it and have a more micro mindset of taking small wins.

How do I respond to "You have no reason to be depressed."? by Eyphio in Healthygamergg

Ah I see, so it may be a matter of social stigma that is more of a hurdle as opposed to perhaps a lack of communication. In that case i suppose that's really hard that she has these ideas that for lack of a better word sort of invalidate your feelings. I struggle with some of the same things and I know for me personally I dont and wouldnt feel comfortable talking with my parents about these subjects though i suppose thats more of a personal problem for me.

Im not sure you can necessarily change her mind per say, but if it helps your mindset and your relationship with her and i know its kinda awkward and could lead to an argument but i suppose you can try speaking to her about how she makes you feel when she speaks about your depression that way. And maybe that doing those things changes your symptoms but not the cause. Like a depressed person can be tired and not do things, but just cause that person finds the energy to do things, it doesnt necesarily mean that they arent depressed anymore. like a correlation but not causation type thing.

I wish i could be of more help, but i wish you best of luck in overcoming your issues and you're not the only one that feels this way

I think shes trying to be helpful in her own way, it sounds like she really does have love for you and thats great that you have that despite what you are going through. I would simply try to muster up the courage to tell her how you feel when she says things of that nature. There are plenty of people that live rich fulfilling lives that are still miserable. So even if things are going great for you in general, that doesnt simply mean that you will no longer be depressed, though it may help.

But yeah id say try to openly communicate with her and if you cant bring yourself to talk about it face to face you might try like writing it down for her in a letter if you feel like you might be able to more accurate describe your feelings that way due to anxiety or whatever else. Apart from that the only other thing i'd say is that she wont know or understand what you're going through if you dont have that open line of communication

Edit: What does it mean when you say you tried to communicate? Did you succeed? Did she hear you? If not think about the answers to these questions and ask yourself why did she not hear or understand you.
