I'm not sure what the CU CBT script looks like, so I thought I'd come up with one of my own. I've tried to make the questions generic enough to cope with any answer from the previous one. Although numbered 1-5, number 5 is intended to loop round and feed into 1, again. When you've got bored of the loop, stop answering the questions.
1. Why are you doing this disempowering behaviour?
2. And how does that benefit you (particularly if you answered "don't know" to the previous question)?
3. Are you able to think of something else, which would achieve the objective that you identified in 2., above?
4. If you are able to think of "something else," does it look like an attractive option, as perceived by you? If it does, then perhaps you should try that?
5. If it doesn't look like an attractive option, in that you can foresee difficulties implementing it, are you able to modify it? If not, or you're not able to think of an alternative, go back to 1.
Feedback is important. If this doesn't work for you, let me know where it fell down.
If you do try it, I suggest you re-write the questions, substituting the pronouns with the particular issue, thus:
1. Why are you doing this disempowering behaviour?
Don't know.
2. And how does "not knowing" benefit you?
Don't know.
3. Are you able to think of something else, which would allow you to "not know"?
Don't know.
4. If you are able to think of "something else," which would allow you to not know, does it look like an attractive option, as perceived by you? If it does, then perhaps you should try that?
Don't know.
5. If not knowing doesn't look like an attractive option, in that you can foresee difficulties implementing it, are you able to modify not knowing? If not, or you're not able to think of an alternative, go back to 1.
Don't know.
