Hi ~ You're going to have to decide to trust your therapist or he won't be able to help you. Sure it's hard to open up and "bare" yourself -- but if you don't, then you're going to be all alone with your feelings and have no one understand you.
My last therapist was a psychologist and she was GREAT. I told her everything -- and she really was able to help me more than any other therapist ever had because I opened up completely. I felt I could trust her - so I didn't mind telling her. If YOU feel you can trust your therapist, then go ahead and tell him stuff. He/she will NOT betray you. They can't - it's against the law.
We always think that what we're going to find out will kill us -- but it never does. It just hurts for awhile - and then we heal. But please talk to your therapist. It WILL do you a lot of good. God bless and take care of yourself. Hugs, Lee
