info_outlineDo Negative Thoughts REALLY Cause Depression?
An Answer--At Last!--from Research
Featuring David Burns, Jeremy Karmel, Diane Spangler and Rhonda Barovsky
Today, David and two dear colleagues--Jeremy Karmel, CEO of the Feeling Great Corporation, and Dr. Diane Spangler--share the amazing results of two types of research on the Feeling Great app that focus on two related and vitally important questions:
- How effective is the Feeling Great app? Research confirms it triggers incredibly fast and dramatic reductions in seven negative feelings: depression, anxiety, guil7, inadequacy, loneliness, hopelessness and anger. The speed and depth of these effects may substantially outstrip human therapists as well as antidepressant medications.
- How does it work? What is the mechanism of action? People have argued intensely about the chicken vs the egg problem for more than 2,000 years. Do negative thoughts REALLY cause negative feelings? Or do negative feelings cause negative thoughts? Or both? Or neither?
The answers are exciting!
Warmly,.
Rhonda, Jeremy, Diane, and David
