...it's time for a funny topic. I see lots of people on here besides myself going through very rough patches lately. I am a big proponent of the use of humor to get through things.... so let's make each other laugh!

So...

What is the the funniest/most embarrassing thing that ever happened to you in therapy?

I have two.

One (and I know I mentioned this in the post back when it happened) didn't actually occur in therapy, rather it occurred on my way out. It is something he didn't see; however, there is no doubt he heard it. I left the room and proceeded to fall down the stairs. The crash was deafening. I was in pain, but didn't care. I had to get out of there before he opened the door to find out what happened. I ran out as fast as I could.

The second one happened a long time ago, fairly in the beginning of our relationship, but I have not forgotten it. I don't remember precisely what the content was of what we were discussing, but I know we were talking about the notion of just making things "go away" rather than exploring them. I think I mentioned something about wanting to just go to sleep so I didn't have to feel things, especially in session. And T goes, "Well what should we do about it?" And I go, "We can go to bed." But I totally (or at least consciously, lol) did not mean it like that. And I got all flustered and tried to fix it and I was blubbering, "I mean.... not like, go to bed... I mean, like... take naps... separately... it was just a sarcastic remark.... about sleeping... so I don't have to feel things...um..." I must have turned 74 shades of red.

So c'mon! Share yours. And if you don't want to or you can't think of one, at least you can laugh at my expense!
