Hi CG,
thanks for assigning me homework. This is exactly what I had in mind. I went home and did it. Okay, so the ratings for my negative thoughts improved by about 7%. That's like going from a C to a Bminus. It's progress.I still have this sinking feeling in my gut. I don't want to tell anyone my "good news".
T says that I have learned that I don't deserve to be happy. Right now I'm bummed that I'm not happy. But at least I feel more neutral about it (C being pretty unhappy, B being neutral, A being pleased for myself)
I will try this exercise again, maybe later on in the evening after I chill out a bit. thanks for your counsel.
