I have now had a good look over ecouch, still working my way through some of the links and references.
From the website, by way of explanation:-
"The original version of e-couch was co-funded by Australia's beyondblue: the national depression initiative and the National Institute for Mental Health Research at the Australian National University.e-couch has continued to be expanded and delivered by the National Institute for Mental Health Research with funding from the Australian Commonwealth Department of Health & Ageing, as part of its 'Funding for Telephone Counselling, Self Help and Web-based Support Programmes' measure.
e-couch provides information about emotional problems – what causes them, how to prevent them and how to treat them. It includes exercises to help you understand yourself and others better. Even better, it provides you with a set of strategies that might help you to improve your life."
My first impressions are that it is good but nothing can compare to speaking to a real human, face to face. I am missing the warmth of that sort of interaction, I think. I will keep at it though but I reckon the trick is to take it slowly, not too much at once.
I will have a look at moodgym as well, perhaps not tonight though 🙂
