    Okay, so i focused on why I am obsessed by this person and actually the answer — which was somehting that was coming up before in my ct practice — is that when i think about this person (or being with this person) it induces a “good feeling”… it is rather like an addiction… some kind of psychological dependence… well the fact is that I no longer want to be emotional attached to this person but I cannot rid myself of this warm feeling that I have when i think of them — i.e. the emotional attachment.

    My question then is this: should I use the ct and focus on this “positive” feeling of warmth and attachment when i think of this person? In all the instructions “negative” feelings are emphasized…. but this is in fact a “feel-good” factor… can i scramble it and weaken it with CT?
