I did NOT say that I did NOT understand why people don't trust.

This is what I said....

I agree that people need to be responsible for their own therapy and well being. Yes there are a lot of issues that we have dealing with going to a therapist and telling everything. Trust, shame, quilt, fear, rejection, ect, ect. BUT!!!!!! We need to be able to take the plunge and go forward with things.

You can't keep going to therapy week after week, month after month, year after year, and NOT open up. You're not being honest to yourself, and IMO you are wasting the therapist time, and yours.

If a person doesn't open up, then they don't move forward.


When you don't tell the entire story, your therapist can't FULLY help you. You just may be holding back the part of the story that he/she needs to FULLY help you.

Yes, I told my therapist all that I knew at the time. I am no longer in therapy, but if I was, he would know all there is to know to date......
