Thanks for sharing your story. I was glad to hear it. You sound like a very strong person!
I think your post did make sense. It mirrors what I was trying to say (in a somewhat garbled fashion, probably!) For me too the 'boostrap' method works sometimes, but not always, and even when it does work I get mad at the random 'boostrap advice givers'. Clearly THEY never had to deal with depression, OCD, panic attacks. Because if they really understood it, they'd understand that there are some things that can't be bootstrapped, at least not without the help of an expert bootstrapper and some bootstrap pills. :)
It's like the really thin people who say "it's so simple, if you want to lose weight, eat less," and the relentlessly cheerful people who say, "it's so easy, if you want to be non-depressed, just smile more!"
But I guess there are always going to be people with different views...
