Hearing it as something that's "wrong" with you sounds like it would just hurt and not let you move ahead? I mean "moving ahead" as in feeling it's enjoyable and motivating to do whatever you need to do to be however you want to be.

I've been struggling with therapy seeming like it means I'm doing something "wrong" lately. My t said it's my decision, I could continue to do things the way I have or I could change the way I interact with people. Partly it sounded like something is "wrong" with me and how I interact with people. I'm trying to think of it as not wrong (as far as anyone else is concerned) but just not making me feel as fulfilled as I could.
