I know I frusterate my T sometimes, thats why he calls me challanging, lol But he says I am rewarding to work with, so I see it as a compliment.> Maybe your therapist was trying to get you to talk about why you are so critical. What's behind it?
> I think you are right. My husband said he had a lot of balls telling me that! I told him what my husband said and he laughed and said oh, so your husband see it too? I told him I am glad he told me because most people are not that honest and I never had any guideness from my parents. He told me he had to earn brownie points before he told me. I guess I will never totally figure him out.> I am my own worst critic. My T constantly tells me that I am too hard on myself. It sounds like you might be hard on yourself, too.
> You know I think you have something here, I think I am the most critical of myself, not just other people.> I think being critical is something to work through, not around.

You are right once again, but how do you NOT be critical when almost everything in your life turns for the worse?
