Yeah, my teacher teaches us to be careful about the self-disclosure when counseling too.
However, it puts me at a huge disadvantage when I develop a compulsive need to spill my guts. I am sure that I will get to know her better. It's just that me and her are still new to each other. So, I had this odd need to spill my guts and held it in for one session. Then, I just went back to spilling. So, I haven't given her much of a chance to talk for any long periods of time.
I think my odd need to blab everything has receded because I got some of what I needed and might actually give her a chance to do something more than just respond to all of my stuff.
