I'm not interested in you or anybody else doing anything the way that I do it. What I am interested in is you being reflective or thoughtful about evaluating whether what you *are* doing is really the only way *you* could possibly do it. Maybe I'm misreading your posts, but I don't see how this approach is really working for you in any meaningful way.

I feel that I sometimes see this approach to psychotherapy here, and out in the "real world." Sometimes people don't want to consider other options and they do this without really being thoughtful about why they won't or can't change, and it seems like they have no desire to change. No willingness even to imagine doing it differently. I find it frustrating and tedious and yes, this is fully my issue, not yours. I'm just expressing it, which is my right to do so on this board. If people weren't hurting, I wouldn't find it frustrating or tedious. I find it painful to watch people be stuck. Yes, my issue.
