The question of Appropriateness

[reeay]

Yeah, Fang, good point.

Most if not all people who come in for treatment believe quite staunchly that they have very little choice in what they do (often times attributing problem to everybody & everything else)... that's kind of the first distortion that needs to be explored. The misunderstanding is that one is being controlled by something or not having choice in behavior. At some point people do foreclose on alternative solutions to reduce stress/anxiety by engaging in cognition (thought), affect (emotions), and behaviors that can further lead to more distress and disability. Doesn't make sense logically but it's pretty intriguing to figure out how people become the way they become.

Again, it depends on severity of condition and the type of condition (schizophrenia and psychosis & OCD can't really be compared bc it's a totally different class of condition).
