Awww Growli, I always use that argument deflect technique too. If I ever want to be left alone, I just get in a fight with the person. I was expert at doing this with my sister when growing up. I don't tend to use it in therapy, but I'm fairly comfortable talking in there. But I can see how one would use it in there. It's a reasonable response to the implication that you should talk about your most personal **** now.

And sorry to ask this (maybe I just missed something) but are you still considering another T besides LCM, or did you work that out somehow and I missed it? Just wondering.
