mkac, would you say that the issue isn't only that you're safe as long as only you know your secrets, but also that if you tell your secrets, other people might get them wrong? That's something that bothers me and is a bit of a hindrance for me in therapy. Because if that happens you'll have lost control over your secret, it's out there and you can't get it back in, and in addition people still won't know the truth.

Add to this the fact that I'm terrified of being somebody who talks too much, because if people think I talk too much they will think I'm annoying... yep, I can definitely relate to that quote, I do want to keep the secrets prisoner. And I'm very frightened of the pain.
