Well just got off a 1 hour phonemail with a psych and they seem to think I've got depression as well as PTSD and Anxiety which I whole heartedly disagree with!
Has anyone here had CBT before, what does it entail?

I also got the diagnosis of depression from my psychiatrist. I think we all have a little bit of depression going on because we are not living our lives how we want to due to anxiety, but it is different from clinical depression. CBT is learning tools on how to cope and manage your anxiety and setting goals to overcome anxiety. I just started cbt and she gave me an exercise for deep breathing and learnt different ways to distract myself when I am having a panic attack.
Is CBT cognitive behavior therapy?
Yes it is
Thanks....years ago I had developed workshops for therapists to teach this approach. Some found their clients were helped by it, but it takes time like any other approach.
