I've had little success with multiple CBT therapists as it's basically "have you tried not feeling bad" with extra steps.
"Things are only as bad as we perceive them to be" leading up to "have you tried reframing that and finding something positive in it", and "have you tried not thinking about that".
If I need dissociation and self-delusion, there are substances that are a far more impactful option.
I'm glad I'm not alone in this. They tried to say it was my " engineer brain" making me miserable.... But as a super autistic adult...the only comfort in this world is objective math and scientific truths.
