It&#x27;s a really interesting idea.<p>A few years ago when my anxiety, depression and agoraphobia peaked one of the things that terrified me about talking about it to anyone was the way I&#x27;d managed to &quot;logically rationalise&quot; it to myself - I was literally scared of infecting friends with my ideas because even though a part of me knew it was stupid and broken beliefs, I was still capable of entirely justifying them. The fact I&#x27;m usually a strong minded person who&#x27;s good at talking people round to my way of thinking only made this idea more troubling.
