Do you ever think that you "shouldn't be depressed" because you've "got a good life"?

In 2021, The Depression Project posed a question to our 3,000,000+ person social media community:

In what ways can depression cause you to feel ashamed?

Thousands of people responded, and one of the most common sources of “depression shame” that people mentioned was along the lines of:

Unfortunately, this can indeed be a very natural source of shame for people with depression – which of course, does nothing but compound what’s already an extremely challenging, debilitating illness to deal with.

However, the negative thought “I shouldn’t be depressed because I’ve got a good life” is just that – a negative thought – as opposed to a fact. And so, we’ve put together this cognitive behavioural therapy-based journal, in order to help you:

• See for yourself that this negative thought is not true;
• Let go of the shame that it causes you to feel.
