Okay - but I am clueless as to how so. I don't disbelieve you, I just don't know how it helps.

Absolutely.

I dislike not being in control of myself. It was silly to give in to the urge to tell the therapist and I did not really need to do it. If I had waited longer it would have passed and if I had waited longer, I would have been more in control of the situation and could have told friends and been able to deflect them appropriately.
