Can anyone tell me how to shut off that interior voice that says things like "nobody likes you anymore", "you're not doing your job as well as you used to" "you don't belong anywhere" etc. etc. etc. I did this to myself all day at work, even though I kept trying "thought-stopping". By the end of the day I was in tears. I know this is all in my head. I know I am imagining it because I am depressed. But knowing isn't the same as feeling. All "things" in my life are going well, while I am feeling like I'm losing it. Like, how can I be thinking suicide sounds good (no, I don't think I ever would) when we are in the process of adopting two boys who make me very happy? Somebody tell me I'm not crazy, please!
