Don't stress if a step in therapy isn't working for you. Communicate this to your therapist and if they're any good they'll talk you through it or offer some different approaches.

I "failed" at an exercise that was supposed to give me emotional distance from bad memories. It just wasn't productive for me. It just made me anxious. If your therapist is good they'll be able to identify why you're having trouble and work though it.

This! Struggling with a step of therapy doesn't mean you're messing up your progress, it just means something about that step is really difficult for you right now (maybe it's not the right approach for you, maybe you need extra support with it, maybe it'll go way better in a week, etc). A good therapist will be able to work with you to understand what the issue is. I also really encourage you to talk with your therapist about the difficulty you're having with it (It's also okay to consider working with a different therapist if the person you're seeing currently ends up being dismissive of your difficulties or unproductively shaming you for struggling, though I certainly hope the trouble you're having rn can be resolved with their support).
