we had a good session actually. told her alot i dont dare tell anyone else right now.

i'm going through the county mental  health, and they keep changin therspists on me.  its frustrating, but i'm adjusting.

trust isnt easy for me, so opening up as much as i did was a good thing.

  been in and out of therapy , seems like i keep moving, then have to break in another therapist.

  i'm an incest /abuse survivor. plus was in and out of abusive relationships. after i left home. been raped at least 3 times, and almost abducted.

  i know you only get out of therapy what you put into it. and i put in alot. i suffer from  PTSD, OCD, and a personality disorder.

  maybe this is too much info for everyone...i dunno,

taking my chances here.

  i'm working hard at getting better.

An important part of trust is learning to trust your own instincts. Learning to listen to yourself. If you felt uncomfortable sharing parts of your life that's ok. It's also good that you are questioning why that felt uncomfortable. It's most important to be honest with yourself. If this therapist is any good she will understand why you were untruthful when you are ready to reveal the reasons. However, keeping information to yourself and making up stories are a lot different...you seem like a really nice person and I bet you don't have to make up anything untrue to be liked! So, reveal bits of yourself at a time as you feel safe, just try to keep it real. Like Linda said...If you don't like the therapist try to find another, although sometimes at county mental health facilities pickings aren't so great! LOL Take care gsees...one day at a time, girlie!

If your not comfortable with therapist; your are wasting your time & money. 

It's not fair for them to keep changing your therepists. You need to get use to one person to trust.

i know its not fair that they keep changing therapists on me.

i'm in the middle of no where, and exploring other options.

  i'm always uncomfortable at first, takes a bit to adjust to a therapist. this was only my 3rd visit to her. and the 1st was basically

 intake.

if i feel i'm wasting time and money, i'll leave. so far it hasnt come to that.

  geesh, i feel like i opened a whole can of worms here.

Forget what I posted. I read the post oif yours but responded like it was for physical therapy. I don't know where my mind was. Sorry. You have to trust the one helping you and be able to open up or they can't help you.

trust is a two way thing. 

she has to trust that what you say to her is the truth and then

you have to trust that whatever she says to you is the truth .

trust .... a big word with lots of flaws in it .

but  until you can trust yourself you cant expect to move on 

so others can trust you in helping you to gain what you lost .

sounds like gobbledygook to me

but therapists have to believe

that you trust them so they can help you . best of luck

in getting a great therapist to help you in all your needs . gsees
