On a similar note, my CBT therapist sometimes will not focus on what's "broken", but instead asks me "what makes you feel good? what do you want more of? what do you do for fun ? when do you get to play?"

With my regular therapist, we discuss what I need to "fix" but CBT T has kind of a positive psychology approach, which is interesting.

Being grateful to the illness is very positive too--interesting!! Main T is a mindfulness freak, but has never ventured into this area.
