I went to therapy for the first time today and I already have figured out what's wrong with therapy: they give you homework. there are all these thought patterns and practices you're supposed to adopt and who has time for that? besides, I already knew what I need to do, I just don't know how to do it in the moment. Therapy should just be a holodeck where you negotiate realistic scenarios you expect to encounter this week, and the counselor just coaches you and gives you notes. I would do that.
