cognitive behavioural therapy is basically about training your neocortex to inhibit your amygdala's hijacking of your brain via the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.

There is none; happiness doesn't work like you think. It's a reward mechanism to encourage you to hill climb, to continue to refine what you are doing until you get it right.

It's transient, you can't capture it forever.

>>677609356
Probably CBT to start, as DBT is more for BPD.

I feel useless, like a waste of space.

THe one thing I can do well that I could get reasonable pay for I hate and find tedious and boring to tears. I hate people outside of the few friends and the one potential girlfriend I have, and I have certain thoughts that make me feel like an abomination. Every day I fight a need to just be a hermit and tell the world to fuck off, partly because I feel so worthless.
