The American Psychological Association (2014) defines resilience as "the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats or even significant sources of stress (para. 4)."
Sometimes I wonder if I had better resilience, I wouldn't feel as much that ctb is my only option. Maybe I'd actually be able to seek help. So many people go through difficult situations and yet are able to push through them since they have good resilience. I don't understand how they're just able to go get the help they need. Do you guys think that there's ways to improve resilience, even if mental illnesses like anxiety or depression stand in the way? And if you could deal better with difficult situations in your life even if you wouldn't completely be able to solve them (whatever they are), would you lose the urge to ctb, or would you still feel the same?
