My therapist printed out and gave me the card listed as Diary Card 4Download halfway down this page to try and fill out, but I'm not quite understanding what to do with all the ones "numbered" with an octothorpe instead of an actual number. I don't get how everything under ACCEPTS has a "#" instead of a number while everything under, say, core mindfulness and IMPROVE has numbers, yet cognitive distortions have #'s too.


Did they just eff up the sheet? I just noticed the actually numbered ones are kinda out of order in that if you replace the octothorpes in "increase positive emotions" "ACCEPTS" and "Accepting reality" it actually flows numerically.

I think I'm going to download it myself and (obviously put in the right numbers) but change the cognitive distortion ones to be Greek symbols instead. I feel like using personalization and blame should use a different label system than using radical acceptance or assertiveness. Labeling should be π, it only seems right.
