I spin my wheels on exactly these same things, so I'm right there with you both! Severe depression and chronic disease is written in my stars, so I'm clearly destined to slog through it, and so I've spent a lot of time (I mean a lot of time) trying to figure out why. I'm glad it helped, at least a little!
Like some things, no matter what I try to do differently, always have the same results.
I see this come up in my daily/monthly/etc. readings a lot: they say that a particular energy is going to happen: and even if I'm aware of it, no matter what I do, it always happens! So I've changed strategies: instead of trying to avoid or cause a kind of energy, instead I try to channel the positive aspects of a figure rather than its negative aspects. Instead of getting-stuck-in-a-rut Tristitia, I try to channel grinding-away-at-making-something Tristitia; instead of obnoxiously-trample-over-everyone Puer, I try to channel searching-out-and-finding Puer; etc. This helps, at least if I can maintain enough perspective to not get lost in despair!
