Begin gently. You may skip any question. This is a reflective self-inquiry tool, not a diagnosis or substitute for medical or mental-health care. You decide what feels useful to explore.
What story about myself, another person, or a situation am I treating as unquestionably true?
Which parts are observable facts? Which are interpretations, predictions, or assumptions?
If I questioned this story, what uncomfortable feeling, responsibility, uncertainty, or change might I have to face?
Does this belief protect my pride, belonging, innocence, certainty, or preferred identity? What does it cost me?
What else could be true? What evidence would help me examine this fairly without rushing to a conclusion?
What small, honest action could help me test my assumptions or act with greater integrity?
Self-honesty is not self-attack. It is the willingness to remain curious when certainty feels more comfortable.
