During the period that I wrote about in the above post, I actually believed that people, and agencies, were out to "get" me. It seemed like there were hidden clues everywhere. Living alone, working nights, bad nutrition, and health problems put me on a collision course with myself. That was over 20 years ago, and I'm still here - and doing better than ever.

If you can admit that your own mind is at least partially responsible for your situation, you will be on the way to recovery. You have developed belief systems that are irrational. You must learn to DISPUTE them, with rational thinking, over and over until it is apparent what reality consists of. This is the only way that you'll get better. If you donā??t believe me, try it - and if Iā??m wrong, it wonā??t hurt anything. Logic will show you that the truth can be found by controlling your thoughts. It can be done. I would recommend Albert Ellis' books. He is the founder of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy.
