Today, I deliberately didn't tell my therapist half of what I was going through because I didn't want to depress her. FML
JayCee500 tells us more.
I'm the OP. I posted this after my last session with my therapist--I'd realized that this particular person wasn't working for me because I didn't really connect with her to an extent where I'd be able to tell her all my problems. This is the first time I'm seeking therapy, and from what people have said, it sometimes takes a while to find someone you are truly comfortable with. Just to be clear--I don't think that my particular problems are at all special, and they aren't even that bad when compared with half the shit people I know go through. It was just getting to the point where I was deliberately excluding things that had happened to me/that I felt because I considered them too "pathetic" to share. You can probably guess that one of my problems is that I care way too much about how other people perceive me.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I've done that before, OP. at some point you gotta talk, or find a therapist you can open up to.

I hope things get better for you. I know it's hard to find someone to talk to on a deep level.

It's always better to get it off your chest. Chin up

I don't go to mine because I don't like reliving the memories. Nothing illegal just have enough I don't like to bring them up. It sucks.

Your not using that to your full advantage if your not open. Either be open, or find a professional that you feel you can open up to.
