Getting your way, getting what you want, having things work out, having things go your way — are all — basically the same circumstances — that can temporarily defeat depression.
Suddenly get an idea, a want—Then run through all the logistics to implement the idea; the pros the cons; each time the solution lands close to what you want to happen, the excitement builds; but the list of cons won’t stop re-appearing and wanting attention. The spiraling begins, wishy-washy, torture. Unable to calm the storm. What ever pleasure gained from the original idea is lost in the stampede.
Deflating things — causing any previous decision to be questioned
- second guessing
- not knowing the rules
- low self confidence.
