Well, how do I get rid of my anger? Therapist: You can change your thoughts. Elliot: Like thinking what he’s saying is insane? Therapist: How would you respond to an insane person who said these things to you? Elliot: I get it. Therapist: Good, but how would you respond? What would you tell yourself? Elliot: I would tell myself that he doesn’t know how to behave. He is hallucinating about something. He is saying things that are crazy and he can’t help it. Therapist: What emotion would you feel then? Elliot: I guess I would feel sad. Maybe I would think it was funny.
