Yes--when I decided to try learning something I'd always wanted to be better at but thought I couldn't do (singing). It made me realize that I can change myself, I can choose to learn new things and be more like the person I want to be. Therapy contributed to this by letting me think about all the things I thought I couldn't do or was too afraid to try and how that was shaping my sense of who I was in a really negative way. And to see that there might be a different way.
