Argumentum ad Momentum 22
Not really :O
In cases with depression [or using depression as a cover term for specific situations that warrant such (ie social persecution or fear of such)], it's as if it's reasonable to look a lot less at oneself and one's capabilities, their self-worth, self-concept, self-esteem, and a myriad # of other factors solely based on the context of the thoughts that come to the person
consistently and their environment, to say most generally. What is real in a person's mind is what affects them most--and there are times that the mental voice repeats a demeaning statement and it feels all the more real because it's trying to interact with the most recent (or at least perceived) happening. Anxiety and fears that way are futuristic and don't belong in the present...because it's not describing what is happening but what is seen
to happen.
Otherwise, a term for those are 'blockers'; ideas that do not give progress and stifle action. Those do not and cannot define people because you can't define a person by what's perceived as their limitations, but by their possibilities, and often these in life aren't hard-bound. The corepoint of not giving up is experience and exposure; the counterpoint is giving up and settling with just what you
knew, and this is a very blunt note on point.
Keep going scriver c: You inspire me; many people do (and many don't know it).
