I laugh and joke a lot in my sessions. I wouldn't necessarily say it's a good thing though - I use it to buffer myself from painful feelings. My T would probably prefer (and I think I would too) if I didn't. Sometimes when I'm laughing I can tell that I really should be crying and maybe if I laugh hard enough, I'll cry. A few weeks ago I was laughing and crying at once. That was kind of a breakthrough.
Now that I'm typing this out I realize it sounds quite batshit... I suppose I'm not boring, but I think I'd take boring over what I am...
