Finally, I read this. And it was worth reading! Really worth reading. I guess I am a ruminator like Damien. Sometimes when I get low all the past sad incidents swallow me. Also, I start thinking about those bad events again and again. I feel there is a positive feedback which makes unstable at times. A small negative event leads to a rush of more bad thoughts coming to mind.

Now, I hope, you understand how necessary it is to break this cycle.

Yes!
