Hey, what's REBT? Behaviour therapy, I guess. No doubt this has been gone over, but I had real problems with the idea that our ideas/thoughts determine our feelings.
I dunno why this is so important to me. It's not just a question of fact. Maybe it's a question of values for me, I couldn't say which values.
Even when doing psychodynamic therapy it was important to me that the reason for doing it was not utilitarian, ie based on a calculation of gain for effort.
I don't really understand my thinking about this. Certainly not logical in the obvious sense. But something deep (whatever it might be) within me, I think.It just occurred to me. Too much acid and Moody Blues?
