John is a 30-year old married male who feels down most of the time. He experiences frequent, intrusive thoughts that he is not good enough, despite personal and professional successes. He tries to overcompensate for his thoughts by taking on more than he can handle, which leads to failure and furthers his feelings of inadequacy. He reported the following to his therapist: “I feel pretty worthless and have felt that way for a long time - for over ten years. It feels normal to be down. Sometimes I start to feel better, but it never lasts - I feel bad about my life most of the time. I don’t think that I’ll amount to anything and l might never be successful at work. I feel exhausted all of the time. I have trouble sleeping. I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night and can’t stop thinking about all of my failures. Maybe I’m just pessimistic.”
