Very very early on in my T, before I really understood the relationship and how it works, I kept referring to my T as my "friend" and "mentor." She never corrected me, but I'm a little embarrassed now.

And, one time, I was kind of angry at T because I felt like she really wasn't listening to me....so I disclosed a really disgusting detail about some abuse that happened to my mother when she was young. It served no purpose really except shock value. I'll never forget the disgusted look on my T's face...I felt bad.
