I have never done it. The whole idea freaks me out. But one of the therapists I interviewed a year ago had a Freud looking couch in her office. I sat in the chair. I don't even like sitting on the couch in the therapist's office where I go. I would prefer a chair but there is not one. I sit right in the middle so my movement is unhampered and I don't feel as trapped. The couch is a casual family room sofa sort of looking thing rather than a more formal sort. It is hideous and uncomfortable.

There was a blogger on psychology today, Mr. Analysand, who reclined.
