I tend to agree. I mean, CBT is great in a lot of ways, and for a lot of people it might be just the ticket.
But I tend to be mulish when confronted with it straight up.
I'll admit that the first five years of my therapy were spent testing my therapist and seeing if he was emotionally safe. Emotional safety is not something I ever even thought possible until him. In those five years, I probably appeared worse rather than better.
I think we came a long way in the next five years though. I'm not quite sure where we are on the journey now. :) But I do know we took out the big envelope of issues Tuesday. I hadn't seen them in over two years. And most of them really aren't issues anymore. Or they may still be true, but they no longer seem all that big or issue-ish.
