Cognitive Behaviour Therapy

About this book

Absolutist thinkers view events in rigid, dogmatic and unqualified terms (e.g. 'I must get others at the meeting to agree with my point of view') and emotional disturbance is likely to occur when other people do not see things their way (e.g. the person feels angry when the meeting disagrees with his viewpoint) along with the unpleasant realization of how limited their power and control actually is.
