I answered both "Yes but it is extremely annoying because how would the therapist know" and "Yes and I like to hear it."

It's confusing. On one hand, I like to hear it because my self esteem is really low, and it's helpful to hear something nice about myself every once in a while. At the same time, I'm thinking, "But that's not true. You have no way of knowing that," and it's annoying.
