Granite, my T always tells me to take notice of my thoughts and feelings... what was I thinking about at the time? how was I feeling about it?

But for me the only thing that works to get past those thoughts and feelings once they are identified, was for me to try to say to myself the things I would say to someone on PC. For instance, sometimes in my head, I have strong thought of unworthiness, then if I wish I could talk to my T or someone, then I berate myself for being too needy and then it just spirals downward.. so I try to notice what started my thoughts to go down the "unworthiness" path... I try to tell myself that those things were done "to me" and are not part of me... I try to tell myself that I have worth just because I am me... I tell myself to have patience with myself and that it is okay to need other people... all the things I would say and truely mean to a stranger..

sometimes its easier to believe those things than others...
