>>13138914Bit exactly the same as what you did, I just went through 2 years of hell, spent the last 1.5 years on the faith, prayer and meditation spiritual journey and used that as a springboard out of the darkness.
Im pretty content now, despite my circumstances, and fairly at peace with things, now I'm more looking to optimise my life and mental state, as I've already woo woo'd myself out of severe psychological torment.
My counter advice to you would be, get into spirituality. Some of these traditions have 6000+ years of dealing with the human condition, which I trust more than psychology (its exactly as arbitrary as spirituality, with less history and more close mindedness, not helpful for dealing with something as complex as the human condition. Also more cocaine fuelled ramblings, and less efficacy in the general populous.
Seems we approached the problem from opposite perspectives with the same result. My guess would be optimisation would include using all the available tools. Godspeed.
