Hey, I found what helps with my depression is definately medication. Aside from medication, I was thinking in my head one day on how horrible of a person I was and just how awful I felt. Well, I started talking to myself and said, "You know what you have a lot of self-pity!" and told myself, "What are you doing? You seem to feel guilty about something." I got into it for like 5 minutes until I realized that yeah I have been guilty all this time and that there really isn't anything to be guilty over. I don't know if you are like me or anything but once I found out I had guilt trips I knew for sure that this isn't controlling my life. I found out that I have done no wrong to anyone and that liberated me!

Guilt can make a mountain out of a molehill.
