You are very hard on yourself, Dinah. The homework is a goal - not a mandate.
You learned something important today. You learned that it will not be easy to give up your forgetting sleeps. That is important information. You also learned that your forgetting sleeps reduce your anxiety and make it so that you aren't as prone to hurt yourself. Either that or the thought of losing your forgetting sleeps makes you anxious and want to hurt yourself. Going through things like this is how you will figure these things out. It is a process. Each time you try to avoid a forgetting sleep you will get more information about them. This is very important. This is progress.
Understanding yourself will take time. It is a process. I think you are doing fine.
