Jan 4, 2018 at 23:07 | comment | added | Max | I think I worry that by explaining my situation I open it up to a discussion about if I need therapy. I want to avoid this, as she isn't going to convince me that it doesn't improve my life significantly regardless of her thoughts on the necessity of it. If someone came to you and said they needed help, would you trust them to determine that themselves? (I also have a bad habit of downplaying my own problems to other people) | |
