Hi, I guess I didn't check the notify box--I didn't know anyone had responded. Sorry!

Hmmm. I don't know. At times the article refers to the cognitive benefits of depressed affect--very different than depression.

And as for rumination, if their model (Andersen?) is correct, I have long forgot the original problem and am lost in a sea of scratch pad pages--a crazed scholar.

Certainly this rumination has bankrupted my health and life. To wake up and just live seems wonderful, impossible, and frankly, terrifying.

All that said, the new questions asked by these practitioners and researchers is refreshing. New questions, new answers? And the idea of what's working right...well, how wonderful is that?
