I am definitely in the self help category. I have suffered quite a few depressing periods. I am glad I did, and did not rely on medication, as right now, I am emotionally so much stronger. Even though the side-effect is that I am a very private and reserved person.
Even when I share my situation with others, it is rarely that I take things to heart, as I know myself better, than most other people know me.
Things depressing me, are bureaucratic forms and procedures. I really don't want to understand the insanity that underlies all the randomness of the rules and regulations. That is where I depend on others, to make sense out of things, because with plain logic I can't.
