What is your homework? I know you were looking forward to it.

Would how you feel about not accomplishing anything yesterday be something you could use in your homework?

Believe me, I know how frustrating it can be to not be as productive as I'd like (and that's likely an understatement).

My homework is to write down my thoughts and feelings about decreasing one of my medications.

Well, given your homework assignment it wouldn't apply. But sometimes your homework assignment might be something like writing down your feelings every hour. Or writing down your thoughts that accompany the feelings.

I guess I'm saying that when you have CBT homework, even bad days and bad experiences have value, because they give you insight into the sort of things that you'll be discussing in CBT.

If that makes sense.

I hope yesterday went better.
