Thanks for the response findingme.
Maybe I can have my social and romantic needs met, but like I said, it FEELS futile. I'm not saying it IS futile, it just feels that way.
My mom refuses to change and my ex friend wants NOTHING to do with me. To expect change in either area is to be resistant to futility.
I did not say E2 and E3 were unhelpful, just that they can't help if you're still resisting futility, because resisting futility is the source of depression.
