Hi emgee,
Welcome to the site. Thanks for taking the time to share your introduction here with us.
The Depression Center offers personalized, interactive tools that have helped thousands of people challenge and overcome their depression. CBT is only effective when you do the homework. Worksheets help you track your homework exercises and CBT is a lot of work!
As you move through the Depression Program the worksheets will change as you change. Make sure you give yourself time to do the homework properly - you know your depression best so it's really up to you to decide how often you do your homework. Take your time when you do your homework, there is no rush!
Each session in the Depression Program is based on previous sessions, and if you track your mood with your Mood Tracker (and keep notes in the spaces provided) you'll see much improvement over the coming weeks.
At the beginning of each session we give you a Weekly Review, which allows you to see how far you've progressed. We save your Weekly Review results in your Session Diary, so you will see a collection of results, which are all based on what you write in your worksheets.
CBT is a lot of work but the good news is that if you follow the program it will all come together for you as you start to feel better.
We look forward to hearing from you again soon,
Casey
