A short personal reflection (YouTube) in which the speaker describes receiving help for depression, learning about feelings, and progressing from shame into guilt and then recovery. They mention that people introduced them to behavioural models which helped them reflect and climb out of a shameful place toward feeling better.
I got a bit of help with depression and people sort of talked me through models and behavioural models, and that was good to a point. It just helped me think and reflect on things and sort of come to where I needed to be. I think it all started with shame and me understanding how I feel, you know, not really. I couldn't articulate that early in sessions with people how I felt. I just didn't understand feelings, you know. Then I went to that place of shame. Shame's horrible place, you know, kind of climbed out of. Into guilt, which is not so bad, but still not great.
But then you move past that and it's great, you know. So that was kind of the journey that I took to sort of get myself fell there.
