Target Behaviors are those problem behaviors we engage in that are ineffective, damaging, or in some way not what we want for our ideal. These are tracked on the Diary Cards daily.
I've decided to revamp my Target Behaviors for the third and final segment of the therapy group. I still need help with the ones I've been working on, but I also feel I should try to start working on some other things while I still have the support of the group.
My new Target Behaviors to work on in group are:
Avoidance to the point of inactivity -- Often I have so many things I really need to do and I either don't want to do them, would rather do something else, or I just don't have a clue how/where to start.

Resentment towards others due to envy -- I spend a lot of time being envious of just about everyone I know. It causes a lot of resentment, anger, and hurt.

Some possibilities for future target behaviors are:

Some possibilities for future target behaviors are:
- Giving up when I try to do something hard
- Leaving the house at the first signs of anxiety
- Excessive driving for stress release
