My T wanted me to write down a list of positive and negative things about myself for our session tomorrow, and having left this 'til the last minute, I'm having a hard time coming up with ANYTHING, even the negatives (which I thought would be super easy!)
So far I have: + creative artistic genuine honest trusting trustworthy laid-back intelligent witty (sometimes!) literate - indecisive pessimistic cynical procrastinator lazy overweight naive directionless clueless passive "quiet" defensive untidy irritable no willpower boring pathetic Okay, so this may be kinda cheating, but has anyone had to write similar things for T? How did you come up with things to write? Or if you really want to help me cheat () is there anything you think I should add to either list? What I have found, writing this list, is that I just don't feel like I know 'me' anymore. At one time I would have wrote things like 'reliable' or 'self motivated' in the Positives column, but I don't know if I can truly say those things about myself anymore -- with the anxiety and depression, sometimes I'm not in control, and I feel powerless to do what I want/need to do. I didn't fully realise how much I have changed until I came to write this list tonight. Maybe that is what T wanted me to figure out...? Thoughts?! Just wanted to share |

I would add something like warm or friendly or caring? You have genuine and honest, but nothing that indicates that you value affection, relationships and that you generally have displayed a positive, pleasant demeanor here. If I weren't such a robot myself I would know what words I mean!

Thanks, hankster
I will add 'caring' to the positives list, I think that is true. But whilst I wish to be 'warm' and 'friendly' I feel that these are things I aspire to be, rather than am percieved as being... in real life at least! I can be quite awkward and unsure, quiet and shy (ooh, another negative!) but people can read that as aloof or indifferent... Cheers again, that helps me!

If you are "overweight", you might also be "cuddly" and "curvaceous".
Are you "loyal" or "generous"? |

Loyal, yes. Generous? Well, I'm not selfish... I'd give more if I had more to give, you know? Thanks for your feedback, I'm still keeping notes on this |
