I think I would just have to agree with all that say there isn't anything too "taboo" to discuss in therapy. That's definitely the right mindset, I am sure. That's not to say I can take my own advice.

Oh, I've had embarrassing discussions. But they've mostly been accidental and due to my sometimes embarrassing quality of naivety..We once had a very embarrassing discussion about the therapeutic relationship that was along the lines of "But you have "no personal feelings" for me, therefore you don't care." T: "No, I don't have those kinds of personal feelings for you..." Me: "Wait...exactly what kinds of personal feelings are we talking about here?...You mean thoooseee kinds of feelings?.."

So, due to an inability to use real words to describe certain embarrassing topics, ect....that's pretty much ruled out any real intentional conversations about embarrassing topics.

I admire the people who can have real discussions about "embarrassing" or "taboo" subjects! You're much braver than me!!
