i'm private about it but not secretive. my mom knows, my T knew and i was going to tell my good friend from the old forum i used to post on (not psychology-oriented) but then i've posted some embarrassing things concerning him so i decided not too.

i definitely got weirded out when things from one thread in the psychotherapy forum ended up (even while altered) in an article on the ny times website. even anonymously and with details changed, i don't want things i say ending up on a major newspaper site. i took most info off my profile after that.
