amazonv Things from talking with my therapist
We discussed unhelpful thinking styles (also called cognitive distortions)
i do all of them - however my mother yells at me most for B&W, and i think a lot of shoulds are really shoulds? so i disagree with that whole thing (perhaps why i need therapy)
i think everyone does these? i don't think thats bad? i think being able to stop and assess if you are doing it and it's causing stress and is it accurate is more the thing?
