Sounds like one of the valuable middle of the night revelations. :)
You are absolutely positively right. And your insight should really help the course of your therapy, since you're clearer on both what you want and what you really need.
And of course, you also need to accept that sometimes you will be less than competent. Gasp!!!! And that that is *OK*. Being human means screwing up from time to time. I think it's in the rules somewhere. ?
Do you ever wonder if maybe it's not beneficial for kids to fail spectacularly from time to time and see that the world does not, in fact, end? Unfortunately, in my most spectacular failures, the world might as well have ended so I didn't learn that important lesson. :( But I'm getting better at failing all the time!!
