But I feel so upset about this person who I have to see every week knowing this "secret" about me - I know she won't tell anyone; I know she's a therapist and she's definitely heard worse; I know she's not judging me. It's just that to the world, especially in this group, I am competent, confident, and in control. And not the sort of person who needs a therapist to work out attachment issues stemming from childhood maltreatment. I feel exposed and unclean and I don't like it.

I hear you judging yourself and others who need therapy. It wasn't your fault that you had terrible parents who messed up the whole attachment thing. And you shouldn't be blamed or judged for needing to repair it. In fact, you should be applauded for being brave enough to face it and get the help you need.
