I agree that it can bring you a sense of relief in getting it out there. I feel like it was sort of blocking the therapy (in my case, marriage counseling), like the elephant in the room, until I managed to talk to my marriage counselor about it (talked to my individual T about it first, but I was in kind of a unique situation).
Thanks for this!
