aj,

It's not always going to be like this. Are you doing the program? Give it some time. It took you awhile to get to this point and it will take a while to get back. I wouldn't discount therapy or medication just yet. There is definitely a fear surrounding those things--I've had it too--but they can be helpful. I've done both and was surprised at how helpful they were. There is a time and a place for them.

But for long lasting results we have to learn to think differently. Hopefully you are doing the program and all the workbook exercises. I can tell you that them more program work you do, the better you will feel.

Hang in there! You are on the right track!

It's not always going to be like this. Use the program, develope your skills and change your mindset. You can indeed be an overcomer and use your creative to do awesome and wonderful things.
As Jesus said, " Cheer up, I have overcome the World" May you find comfort in those words.
You are at the right place at the right time:)
And Help is on the way:)
Think of this time as a practice time for you to change your thinking and renew your mind and become stronger and a new person:)

It will get better! I will rain, only for a little while. We all go through it, we have are good and bad days, but I will tell you this, I strongly urge you to get med and therapy. I dont know what I'd being without it! I look forward to speaking with my therapist weekly and just getting it al out. IT feels great. We are also here for you, stay as positive as possible. This too shall pass
