Trying hard but still haven't been able to find a therapist. Can someone help me demystify Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT)? What is this all about? I'm trying hard to understand what is out there that may help. My meds don't seem to make a big difference in how I feel. Need help to get a handle on therapy.

@paparaines Here is an article published by NAMI about self-CBT https://www.nami.org/Blogs/NAMI-Blog/November-2016/Discovering-New-Options-Self-Help-Cognitive-Behav

Also, an article published by Mayo Clinic in their tests and procedures section https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/cognitive-behavioral-therapy/about/pac-20384610

In my own journey, I have found that recognizing I need to do something, to step up and begin to move towards better mental/emotional health, makes the daunting task easier to work with. Please let me comment you on doing this!
