I think so, revealing their lack of awareness makes people feel dumb, then implying they are broken (from their perspective) damages their ego. That's going to be someone with their guards up and feeling defensive and no longer receptive to what you have to say. I learnt something similar in managing people.

definitely, I guess you can't help people who don't want to be helped. I try to plant seeds. I know a therapist who, after years of working with someone, they had to tell them they couldnt help them anymore because they refused to take any action or risk thinking differently. Imagine being dumped by your therapist 😅

Waiting until you 'lose it' is weird, that's like saying you should eat right and exercise only when you get morbidly obese. You can be fit and healthy, get stronger by lifting - and be in your prime by exercising today and regularly. That's just a good habit, why wouldn't that apply to our minds?

I know what you mean, in my own discussions about therapy with others. None of us are 'normal' :) I experienced 'weakness'. My CBT therapist uno reverse carded me, framing it as I was being weaker to not face the challenge, he challenged my core belief and infact I wasn't strong enough to face it head on. It worked
