The real reason I don't want my therapist here

Posted by Dinah on March 23, 2005, at 23:29:27

It's not really that my thoughts here are private. That's partly it. I generally tell him whatever I say here, but I might rephrase it in a therapy suitable way.

It's not really the negative things I say about him either, although I really don't want the nose picking thing to get out.

But I'm afraid that he might not recognize the sessions I describe. I'm afraid that my own filter might color what I remember so much that it has no relation to what actually happened.

Sometimes I worry that I'm giving you all an absolutely dreadful impression of him by only giving part of the story, or by perceiving things through my own cognitive distortions. Or by outright bending the truth so that I don't look as bad as I might otherwise.

Do you all ever wonder when reading posts what really might have happened? Do you all ever wonder that about your own posts the way I wonder about mine?
