Hey Adam, glad to hear things are doing better! Sounds like a good plan with the new counselor!

She later corrected herself. Example was parking. She got riled up about me not finding a closer spot to the store when there were no empty parking spots so I found one aways and parked there. It was a small walk to the store, we got our items and went back the car. She later admitted the spot wasn’t far and had this sheepish look. I didn’t add any praise, insult, or recognition to it.


Actually I think some praise would have been appropriate, something like "thank you, I appreciate you acknowledging that". Michele says something like "applaud the 1%" in one of her books, meaning if they say or do something nice even when being otherwise cranky then focus on that good act and encourage them for it.
