Today my therapist asked "what if being wrong didn& #39;t automatically mean you are also worse as a person?" and my brain divided by zero and rebooted.

A lot of my experience of therapy is having somebody politely ask a really simple question, like you& #39;d ask a 4 year old, and realizing that I do not know the answer.

So then I realized I was wrong to feel bad about being wrong and I felt bad about being wrong about that, and I knew I wasn& #39;t supposed to feel bad about being wrong but I was anyway so that made me feel bad. And then my brain went into an infinite loop. It was a good session.

My previous biggest breakthrough in therapy was "sometimes if you feel unable to do things it& #39;s not because you are physically sick, but because you are sad" which, again, seems like a thing a 4 year old would grasp but I took a LOT of convincing.
