Starting Again

Hello Ashley. Thank you for your response. Due to what happened in the past and with my experience, now I am very motivated to work trought my symptoms so I can get better. I am also visiting a therapist 2 times a month with "talk therapy" for 5 months now (thought I do not know if this is helping me).
 
To stick with the CBT I am dedicating at least 30-45 min daily to the program . I plan to write and post on the foruns as I found it helps me a lot.
 
For 1,5 month now (since I begin the new medication treatment) I have been updating my depression levels on the mood tracker tool. Relating to the anxiety levels, I can rate it but it is not possible to write it on the mood tracker tool on depressioncenter.net. Thus I think I will have to rate it separately on the symptom tracker tool on paniccenter.net. I do not know if this is the best approcah.

Welcome back Eleveno,
 
It sounds like you are off to a great start. Both of the programs can help you immensely.  How have you made sure you will stay motivated to stick with the program?  What schedules, procedures, rewards and/or plans do you need to put into place to help?  And know it may not require plans, schedules etc. it may just require a certain perspective to take or personal commitment.
 
In regards to rating your anxiety level it is what you perceive it to be.  What specifically are you finding difficult about rating your anxiety level?

This is a reeintruduction since I have joined the program before with some benefits but quit doing CBT after  a while. I have been dealing with depression and anxiety for years culminating in a nervous breakdown last year. Since then I have been on treatment but stopped the medication without counsulting my doctor 3 months ago (which was m mistake). The sympthoms got worse and 1,5 month ago I started another treatment plan. Now I am better from my depression but my anxiety levels are still high. I am doing the program in the depressioncenter.net and I am studying if paniccenter.net could be good for me.
 
I am using the moodtracker with a scale for depression levels but I can not rate my anxiety which could also be helpfull.
