We all tend to hold beliefs and assumptions about ourselves, other people in the world more generally. But in depression, there are a number of faulty beliefs and assumptions that fuel and drive depression. This is a compilation video describing 13 common beliefs and assumptions that contribute to depression, including:
1) Everything I do must be perfect, or else I am a failure.
2) Life is fair.
3) I am only worthwhile as long as I’m doing something for someone else.
4) Anger is bad.
5) I must always be at 100% peak efficiency and performance.
6) It is easier to avoid life’s problems than to face them directly.
7) Life in unbearable when it is not the way I would like it to be.
8) I need someone stronger, more capable or more powerful than myself to rely on.
9) If others disagree with me, then I must be wrong.
10) The way to be appreciated and accepted by other people is to constantly give and give.
11) I have to do everything I am asked to do.
12) Good relationships have no problems.
