it hits very close to home

Which is exactly the impression I got by reading your long post before comming to this line. It looks to me like you are talking with so much anguish inside.

Well from what I know there are many causes to mental conditions such as anxiety/depression. Some causes are purely genetics and physical. A person does not choose to have anxiety or depression thus choosing to be otherwise mostly turn out feeling like forced and deliberate. If your reasoning is correct then CBT should be a wonderful way of dealing with depression/anxiety. I am not saying there is no chance there but certainly physical conditions cause moods whether we like it or not. However you can choose how to act on those moods. Just like a wound is going to cause pain even though you choose not to cry out loud.
