Depressed when good things happen to you?
Everything is going really well. I have been really enjoying university. I have great friends a great therapy group and I love the campus. I've been feeling more independant, like I might be finding myself at last. And yet, constantly, the more good things happen, the more anxious and depressed I keep getting. Now everytime something good happens or I notice something that i like about university or a friend, all I can think about it is what if all of this will get taken away from me? What will happen when college ends? And then everything starts seeming very dark and hopeless. I don't know what to do with this one....It's becoming a constant struggle.

This is just part of the illness that you're working with your therapy to clear. I get it too. It's awful, but a sign that you're on the mend.

You talk very positively intially above, please don't lose sight of that.
You are getting better.
You are making progress.
Good things are happening.
Try to counter the negative in your head, though thats very hard.
We all empathise with you.
