For a lot of those questions, my question for any of them is, how does the answer to this affect my treatment? I've been seeing my current therapist for a couple months, a major issue for me is the emotional effect of learning disabilities that weren't diagnosed until after 40 y.o., and today is the first time I indicated to him I have a copy of my tests. I wanted him to know me as a person before he saw my numbers.
I wonder how many of those questions actually get used in treatment planning.

I know my birth weight: 7lbs 10oz
I also know the time of my birth... I also know I was breastfeed along with supplemental sugar water (I have no clue why the sugar water). And I know my mom smoked and drank during pregnancy...
I understand about wanting a person to get to know you before revealing information that people might judge you for. It's why I don't want to give consent for my new T to have my ex-T's records. I don't know what she wrote, if she changed things, if she kept her promise to keep certain things out of my file. I know it will be pointless for new T to have my files at a later date because she'll already be caught up by then, but I really can't risk it when I don't know what's in there.
