I'm curious if Alpha works on a reward system in a way. The moment I challenge myself a bit and do something new or that I need to do I feel so powerful and my whole life comes together, whenever I am not doing this thought its like Alpha has made it so I can't ignore that I should be doing other stuff. In the past I could put things off forever, now if I am not actively progressing myself at least every other day I get into a really big funk.
When you make a decision to act on getting one of your needs met (especially if you're unsure or scared of the consequences) you will get confidence and self esteem for it in return. When you're passive and basically sulk in desiring to do things but not doing one iota about it, you head towards depression. Perhaps AM puts more emphasis on both sides of the coin, to make the contrast more obvious and in return more rewarding to do something. But the same mechanism is already in place.
