Great thread. For me, I have learned to have more patience with myself and with others, and how to be emotionally supportive of others. When my T treats me that way, she models it for me, and I think it helps me be able to treat others that way. Like prior to that, I didn't know how, I just did what I knew without self-reflection. Now I'm seeing other options for handling things. Also, helping me see the good in other people, that when they're acting badly it's sometimes from a place of hurt, so not just writing them off as bad or mean. Finally, when faced with two options, choosing the optimistic approach because, why not? Being pessimistic isn't going to change the outcome or make the journey any better, and might be a total waste of energy.
