Analogies are really useful in talking about the messed up things our brains can do. I think writing this stuff down helps too; at least, that's the conclusion I've started to reach too while working with my own therapist.

Actually learning how to identify where I'm going off the rails and why, and how to describe it so I can stop it from happening sometimes (or at least mitigate it while it's happening), has been one skill I've taken away from the past half-year. If analogies are tools that help you do something like that, then good.
