Hi,
Thank you very much for your response. I found a lot of the information to be helpful. Especially the example of the purple kangaroo. Trying to force things, like telling yourself to calm down when you begin to panic, or feel better, be happy when you are extremely depressed not only doesn't work, but often makes the problem worse. I also plan on getting the book you recommended, Malignant Sadness by Professor Lewis.
I appreciate your time and concern.
Thanks again,
Adam
