A practice in vulnerability

Sometimes I can’t believe what I’ve revealed about myself to my counselor and I sometimes find myself wishing I hadn’t but the fact that my counselor was able to understand me and why I did what I did, it felt nice. I was able to find closure and move on without feeling shame.

There’s just something about sharing what’s on your mind that I completely underestimated back then. I thought sharing words with someone would be no different than moving your hand through the air or talking to myself but I was wrong and I’m glad I was wrong.

Glad you’ve had this realization. So many people either lie to their therapist and/or don’t give them the complete picture and leave out important information. What they don’t seem to realize is that by doing this, they’re only hurting themselves and reducing the chances of getting any kind of meaningful help.
