So the past couple of days haven't been so bad, i seem to be coping a bit better in what to me are stressful situations and my thought processing mechanism seems to be coming back. Maybe this is down to the Prozac kicking in, I'm definitely starting to experience some of the side effects from it!
I have came across an Australian website called MoodGYM. Its an interactive program designed to help you learn skills to enable you to cope with depression and anxiety. It is based on cognitive behavioural therapy(CBT) and interpersonal Therapy (IPT). There are 5 modules to work your way through in your own time with exercises to complete throughout. I have nearly finished the first module on feelings and just have to complete the last exercise where over the next week i need to note down three encounters that were associated with negative or positive feelings and see if I can identify my thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Im not expecting miracles from this website but hope it can maybe help me change my way of thinking
It has also got me thing more about CBT and IPT so i'm away now to look into them in more more depth.
