In reply to Therapist first name basis, posted by Miss Honeychurch on January 9, 2004, at 14:45:44

I don't call mine anything. It's an overall issue with me. I consider calling people by their first names to be an intimate and therefore rude thing, which I know intellectually is ridiculous and counter to reality in this day and age.

Oddly I don't have that problem in writing, or with last names.

My therapist tells me that when I say his name, he knows I'm about to say something that is really important to me.
