We were talking about therapy and we have had this discussion in some form or other many times, but she was talking about how therapy is helpful for her because she is willing to try things she necessarily want to do in order to hopefully find something that helps. Her mantra is "I don't know how but I'm willing"

She was a bit upset because for me this mindset just doesn't work. She says I don't try anything, but I tried explaining that there are reasons for every one of those things. Like CBT; my therapist has straight up asked me "well could you change your thoughts about this?"

I feel like my mom, my therapist, and everyone just completely tunes out my reasons for not buying into certain things, and just hear it as me complaining. 

I FEEL like I'm perfectly willing to adopt a new strategy, nee frame of mind, IF I'm given a good logical reason to do so. But I draw the line at illogical things, I have to be able to understand WHY I would do something.

Does that make sense? Am I just being a dick?
