Someone told me that Kristen Bell’s therapist told her that honesty without tact is cruelty and I wrote it on a Post-It and keep it on my desk

-
Her therapist also told her "do good deeds, and don't get caught."

Confrontation doesn’t need to be a bad thing or an argument. If you’re having trouble talking about a problem, try writing down a bullet list of the issues, why it’s an issue/where it might stem from for you, and what can be done to fix it

Frame your points in “I feel” statements When u say “I feel that this action was inconsiderate” the other person can’t say that you *don’t* feel that way Then they’re not as likely to go on the defense as they might with a statement like “You were inconsiderate”

The best thing a therapist ever told me is that society doesn’t need to be the one to set me schedule. I’m allowed to eat breakfast at 11, go to bed at 1am. There’s no correct mold to fit, just find whatever works best for me.

Sometimes I’m super tired at like 7:30pm but I force myself to stay up til a later, more “normal” bedtime and then I’m even MORE exhausted and deal with bad fatigue all the next day and my therapist told me that if I’m tired at 7:30 I can just...go to sleep. It was life changing.

Yes but did they ACTUALLY ASK YOU to solve their problems? I started listening more and asking before diving in to fix it.

That everyone needs a coping mechanism. There are bad ones( drinking, drugs, violence) and good ones (excercise, meditation, therapy). Pick a good one so you can avoid the bad ones, bc we all have things we needs to cope with.

This wasn't mine, but a friend heard, "your marriage wasn't a failure: it actually worked pretty well for over twenty years. You've just graduated from it to something else."
