From where you are, right in the middle of one or more upsets, you have about the poorest vantage point possible on what's going on with you. When I feel anything like that, the first thing I do is take a step back (as it were);
watch myself feeling that way; watch myself thinking that surely this time at least, it must
mean something that I feel that way; and take care not to believe anything, good or bad, I might think about it.
----- Alternative 1 -----
The glass is half empty, you don't want to live, and it means your therapy isn't working.
----- Alternative 2 -----
The glass is half full, you don't want to live, it means you're having an upset, and your therapy is working exactly as it should.
