WHen I do my thought records, I have a very hard time recognizing the negative ones as distortions. To me, they are true and not distortions at all. When a friend doesn't call for weeks, I have a hard time not believing that they just needed a "break" from me - (I need a break from me often!) - I know whatever one makes up is all a story and why not make up a positive story, or believe the positive story or excuse that you are given when you finally speak with the friend. If I do that, I feel like a fool for believing that. My ego feels so needy of being RIGHT - not sure I'm explaining this well, but would appreciate some feedback. Anyone else feel this way?>
