Re: How to Defuse Negative Thoughts Related to Depression

Re: Is medication-free really possible?

Lynda, So glad you found what works for you :D There are no failures just learning experiences!!! I never would have been able to have gotten off of all my meds were it not for practicing all the new skills I learned in CBT. It was a lot of work and I made sure I was proficient at using my TEA forms...
