My case manager, maybe not the most tactful person that I know (she's a racist - we're both white and she uses the buzz words and phrases that white people use when talking about blacks), but she was trained as a psychiatric nurse so I, sort of, trust her more than my real therapist.

Honestly, I'm so far at the end of my rope that I'd discuss my issues with the UPS guy. I don't know what type of program you're on but I am REALLY CAREFUL about watching what I say, though. If I allowed anyone know the severity of my mental illnesses, I'd be institutionised in a heartbeat. I don't know how I do it. I turn myself off until I feel that it's safe to turn on again?

As others have suggested, ask your case manager what she'd be comfortable with. I feel like I'm playing tricks with everyone but, except for here, I suppose, I have a different personality for everyone. That may be a mental illness in itself. If she lets you know that she'd be okay with a bit of therapy, ask to what degree. You need to know if there's a degree of illness that might get you kicked out of your program.

Best of luck,
