Hugs, I was having trouble with depression when I first joined this site, so I signed up to the Depression Centre and found it was a bit of information overload for me to do both. The Panic Centre is more relevant to me so I chose to focus on it. You've already completed the Panic Program though, so it might be easier for you to move onto the Depression Program.
There's no harm in signing up though and having a look at it.
Not all core beliefs are negative. Not only negative core beliefs are hazardous. What do you do if you won't accept a core belief is there? (either type) Or because of some condition you can never see it or believe it. What if your core is so strong it tells you your way of life is normal when it isn't. (This really does happen.) The media is very good at convincing you their way is the right way. How do you know it isn't? How do you look realistic at a situation if you don't know what realistic is. I have two neighbours only, both millionaires. Are their achievements realistic for me? Not likely. Should I care? I don't think so.
There are definitely members who use both sites. That is totally dependent upon you, give it a try and see how it goes. If you feel it's too much than find a balance of what works best for you.
Any other members have experience with using both sites?
Here are two tips that will help you better understand your assumptions and core beliefs:
Identify the events linked to the start of your sadness or depression:
Another important way to uncover your negative core beliefs is to think about what was going on in your life around the first time you were experienced a long period of sadness or depression. One thing you can look for is a match between what happened in that situation and what your specific assumptions and core beliefs are.
However, remember that no matter who you are, it’s important to look at both your needs in relationships and your needs for success & enjoyment in other parts of your life.
Examine your childhood experiences:
In general, the strongest core beliefs and assumptions develop earliest in life from interactions with parents and other caregivers. They also develop more from interactions with school peers and friends. Your history of adolescent and adult romantic relationships is also something you should consider because they could contribute to the development of some of your beliefs about yourself and others.
