@Abner ,
For me, I think reframing helped me with chronic loneliness and the hurt that comes with it.
I found that reframing helped me understand things from a different perspective that would be helpful for me. I may not have been able to prove that the alternative perspective was true about someone else, but it helped me feel better to know that there is more one perspective to things.
Thought: That person hates me that's why they haven't called me
Reframe: That person is busy at the moment. They might call back later.
By reframing, it can balance out potential self-criticism and self-hatred. However, of course everything needs balance. It can also be detrimental if someone always considers the alternative perspective and never really accepts self-reflection.
I hope I'm making sense.
