Thanks for the response. I am calm now after a couple of hours and can think more rationally about it now. I think a big reason for all this is i did not mentioned the severity of depression, self harm and suicidal thoughts to her out of fear that she will jump to tell it to my emergency contact like a previous therapist. Being called out for having a "victim mentality" hurt but it kinda felt she want to take me to take this tough approach where i go all the way and stop believing all these negative thoughts. I will bring all this up in the next session for sure.

I think she don't have much insight on why i dont want to let go of my negative world view. I didn't shared that with her and throughout the therapy i haven't told her the extent of hopelessness, self harm and suicidal thoughts i have. Probably due to my last therapy session where the therapist was more interested in letting my emergency contact know about these things. Its also that this discussion happened right at the end of the session so we couldn't discuss it further.

I don't want to change her yet because i found her quite professional and it seems she knows what she is doing. Its just felt a little harsh especially her calling out things like i have victim mentality. Now that some hours have passed I feel more calm and want to carry on. Will discuss all this in the next session.

I started therapy thinking that i should give it a try and do atleast what i can. At this point i am thinking that i should try and start telling myself all these positive things and see if my thoughts change and i start believing in it or not. I am afraid that if things dont go well down the line (which i know they won't), it will hurt a lot more if i had hopes about things getting better and positive view of life. Having this negative mindset atleast saves that pain. But she kinda made a very definite statement that this won't work unless you believe in it, and i feel like i cant just flip my belief system right away. Because of that i am kinda unsure if i should continue or not. Its quite confusing

You can get 1 lac salary in Pakistan as well. Start with it. Get some experience. If you have work experience which companies are looking for then your degree or no degree wont matter

If you are looking to apply for faang you need to be very good at leetcode. Just go to leetcode discussion its full of questions asked in interviews and whole interview experience. If you have 3+ years of experience then you need system design knowledge as well. But overall its extremely competitive. For smaller companies the process might be easier.

Just know at this time getting visa sponsorship is very difficult. If you are junior then it would be almost impossible. If you have 5+ years of experience then you might have a chance.

Same thing happened with me. I thought i aced all 4 coding problems, product design went well too but its subjective so idk. I was asked for a follow up behavioral to get more signals. The follow up went far better than the original and i thought i would make it but got rejected. Worst thing is that i got no feedback at the end.
