That's really interesting... When I do awful hard things like that, I don't appreciate it. I just say, 'Ugh, I'm so glad that's done' - and reward myself by not doing anything else that's awful unless it really needs to be done. I don't feel like I did anything good, or praiseworthy, or anything, I just did what needed to be done.
And now I'm wondering if this is another way I'm abnormal, lol. I think this is the biggest thing therapy has done for me, is show me all the ways I am different from other people. Like, 'What? You mean most people don't think the world is a dangerous place?' And so on.
