This is an interesting thread. I really try to push myself to share everything that seems relevant with my therapist. It can be hard to do and I usually bring notes with me so that I remember and can push myself to talk about things that are hard.

But I'm sure I'm also not the only one who has symptoms that really get in the way of disclosure. I'd say on average I dissociate 5 times a session. It gets in the way of speaking and is a real barrier to communication. When I'm there for therapy I find my ability to communicate is really limited. And this does mean the whole story doesn't always get across. I do recognise this a problem, but I'd be really furstrated with someone who felt I was deliberately wasting time and/or the government's money. I'm trying my best, and we're working together to try to find ways to get me to talk about things.
